L08110 - Lenco LDCT-50FA 45° Angled Dinse-Style Female Receptacle

Technical Overview of the Lenco LDCT-50FA

The Lenco LDCT-50FA is a precision-engineered female panel receptacle designed to facilitate high-amperage connections in industrial welding environments. This component is specifically manufactured to interface with the Lenco LDC series of male connectors, including the LDC-50, LDC-70, and LDC-85 models. By adhering to the widely adopted Dinse-style connector standard, this receptacle ensures broad compatibility across various power sources and cable assemblies, making it a versatile choice for equipment repair, fabrication, and OEM applications.

A defining characteristic of the LDCT-50FA is its 45-degree angled geometry. In electrical engineering applications involving heavy-gauge welding cables, bend radius and mechanical strain are critical factors that influence both conductivity and component longevity. A straight receptacle often forces cables to bend sharply immediately upon exiting the machine face, leading to insulation fatigue and potential conductor breakage over time. The 45-degree offset of the LDCT-50FA mitigates this issue by allowing the cable to drape naturally towards the floor or work area, thereby reducing the static load on the panel mount and the dynamic stress on the copper strands.

Constructed from high-grade copper alloy, the conductive core of the LDCT-50FA offers minimal electrical resistance, ensuring efficient power transfer with negligible voltage drop even at high duty cycles. The external housing is molded from durable, heat-resistant rubber that provides excellent insulation and protection against incidental contact, oil, and workshop debris. The unit is designed for secure panel mounting, featuring a robust locking nut system that prevents rotation and loosening due to vibration or cable manipulation. For maintenance and repair operations (MRO), the LDCT-50FA represents a reliable, standardized solution for upgrading or replacing damaged machine output terminals.
