- Connectors Relays And Switches
Connectors, relays, terminal blocks, switches and power modules are too large or heavy for standard tape and reel packaging. SEWATE supplies custom and standard anti-static shipping tubes with oval or square profiles, designed to hold these components in fixed orientation during transit and storage. Tube wall thickness ranges from 0.30mm to 1.85mm and length from 50mm to 1000mm, with material options in PVC, PS, PC, PETG, ABS, and multiple colours including transparent, blue, black, red, yellow and purple.
What Goes Wrong in Connectors Relays And Switches
Large or heavy components shift in bulk packaging and arrive in random orientation, requiring manual re-orientation before assembly
Standard tubes do not match the profile of custom or newly released connectors and relays, causing jams in feeding equipment
Electrostatic discharge during shipping damages sensitive contacts and internal mechanisms
Lack of consistent tube wall thickness leads to deformation under stack pressure or vibration
No repeatable packaging for re-work or spare parts, leading to mismatched tooling and production delays
What Connectors Relays And Switches Buyers Need From Packaging
- Fixed orientation packaging that supports heavy or large bodies without deformation
- Tolerance-controlled tube profiles that match the exact dimensions of connectors and relays
- Anti-static protection that lasts through storage and transit, not just at time of packing
- Repeatable tooling for consistent supply across multiple orders and re-work batches
- Flexible length and wall thickness options to suit different component weights and handling methods

View DetailsTypical Jobs in Connectors Relays And Switches
- Shipping terminal blocks and relays from a manufacturer to an EMS plant with no orientation loss
- Storing high-value connectors in anti-static tubes for long-term warehouse buffer stock
- Re-packing a partial lot of switches into matching tubes for re-shipment or re-work
- Supplying custom-length tubes for a new relay model with a unique profile not in standard stock
- Providing matching spare tubes for returned or partially used production lots
How a Connectors Relays And Switches Project Runs
- Send the component drawing, tube drawing or a physical sample to match the profile
- Select material based on required strength, clarity and environmental resistance: PVC PS PC PETG or ABS
- Issue drawing for approval before tooling begins, with tolerance and wall thickness confirmed
- Mould making and tooling trial followed by 20-50 free sample tubes for fit and function testing
- Extrusion, anti-static treatment, closure fitting (rubber plug plastic pin cap EPE plug), printing if required, and carton packing
- Repeat orders run against approved tooling with 5-15 day lead time
What Delivery Looks Like
- MOQ 10000 pieces on standard or custom tube profiles
- Samples delivered in 3-5 days, stock profiles in 5-15 days depending on quantity
- Custom tooling lead time typically 4-6 weeks, with 20-50 free sample tubes provided after trial
- Weekly capacity 50000 pcs and monthly output of finished products 150 tons

Read GuideConnectors Relays And Switches Questions
Can you make a tube for a new connector or relay with a custom profile?
Yes. If no standard profile matches, a new tool is made from your drawing or physical sample.
What wall thickness options are available for heavy components?
Wall thickness ranges from 0.30mm to 1.85mm, selected based on component weight and handling requirements.
What closures are available for the tube ends?
Rubber end plugs, plastic pins, nails, plastic caps, and EPE plugs are available, chosen based on tube material and customer needs.
Do you offer colour options beyond transparent?
Yes. Tubes are available in blue, black, red, yellow, and purple, in addition to transparent.
Is printing available on the tube surface?
Yes. Printing of symbols or codes on the tube surface is optional and can be added during production.
What certifications do your products have?
Products are RoHS compliant, ISO14001 certified, and meet the Sony environmental protection requirement.
Can you handle small orders for spare parts?
Small and large orders are both supported, but the MOQ is 10000 pieces due to extrusion setup costs.
