Full name: Rubber/PVC dust cap for Anderson SB quick connector – black Flexible, quickly attachable and removable dust cap for the front of Anderson SB connectors (over the connector opening) when the connector is not plugged in. Helps keep out dust/mud, reduces contamination of the contacts, and decreases the risk of accidental short circuits during transport or outdoor use.
- Product code:
- EX-C-PORKUP-SB120-F
Why is it useful?
- Protection: against dust and dirt when disconnected – cleaner connector surface.
- Safety: covers the "open" surface of the connector, reducing the chance of something touching it and causing a short circuit.
- Durability: flexible insulating material (often PVC/rubber-like), easy to clean.
- Inexpensive prevention: a cheap accessory that can save a lot of trouble in the field (boat, caravan, off-grid, vehicle DC systems).
Main features
- Compatibility: for Anderson SB series connectors – optional sizes 50A / 120A / 175A / 350A.
- Material: insulating (often PVC/rubber).
- Color: black (other colors may be available in some listings).
