OBD ports for heavy-duty and commercial vehicles
A truck data port lives a harder life than a car's: more vibration, more heat, more dirt, and a service interval measured in hours of operation rather than years of ownership.
The failure we design against
What actually goes wrong
Plastic-bodied connectors that are perfectly adequate in a passenger car get crushed, dropped and levered in a commercial workshop. The failure is mechanical long before it is electrical.
How we answer it
The alloy range exists for exactly this: a zinc-alloy shell around the same J1962 terminal geometry, giving grip, shielding and abuse tolerance without changing the interface the vehicle expects.
What matters here
Three things this application asks of the port
Metal-bodied connectors
Zinc-alloy shells for grip and mechanical protection in commercial service.
Assembled leads
Alloy-shelled connectors supplied as finished, tested cable assemblies.
Serviceability
Mounting brackets for permanently fitted diagnostic and telematics connections.
