Description
The DEUTSCH DT8-1-CAT is a 8-way DT Series CAT Spec full connector kit for compatible vehicle and equipment harnesses. It combines both black mating housings, their green wedgelocks and nickel-plated green-band size 16 contacts in one kit.
Use it for a serviceable sealed connection when the housing configuration and wire size match the application. CAT Spec describes the connector specification; it does not guarantee fitment to every Caterpillar machine.
