Navigating the Future of Military Power: Innovations from Duraline
The demand for reliable, high-performance power distribution solutions is paramount in the ever-evolving landscape of military and commercial shipbuilding. At Duraline, we are at the forefront of innovation, delivering products that meet the rigorous standards of premier shipyards across the United States, including Pearl Harbor, Newport News, Portsmouth Naval, and Puget Sound.
Single Pole Cam-Type Connectors
Our Single Pole Cam-Type Connectors are engineered to handle the high power loads essential for shipbuilding operations. Rated for 690 amperes co ntinuous and 1150 amperes intermittent at 600 Volts AC/DC, these connectors ensure robust performance in demanding environments.
The unique latching mechanism provides secure connections without the need for tools, facilitating quick and reliable assembly and disassembly. The ball-nose design with insulating sleeves offers a splash-tight seal, protecting connections from harsh marine conditions. Additionally, color-coded insulators aid in easy phase identification, reducing the risk of misconnection. These features make our connectors indispensable for shipyards like Newport News and Portsmouth Naval, where safety and efficiency are critical.

X-POWER Solid Molded-to-Cable Connectors
The X-POWER series represents a significant advancement in connector technology. By molding the insulating sleeve directly over the contact and fusing it to the cable jacket, these connectors eliminate seams and air pockets, enhancing durability and longevity.
Equipped with an anti-shear pin, these connectors prevent contact slip and withstand over 2000 lbs. of pull force, ensuring secure connections even under the intense stresses common in shipbuilding environments. Available in E1022 and E1023 series styles, our X-POWER connectors provide flexibility for various applications, making them ideal for military bases such as Pearl Harbor and Puget Sound.
