Key Features
1. Flame-Retardant & Insulated
- UL94 V-0 rating ensures fire safety in engine bays or high-temperature areas.
- High insulation resistance (≥100MΩ) prevents short circuits, critical for electronic accessories (e.g., window lifters, dashcams).
2. Low-Profile Design
- Slim form factor fits tight spaces (e.g., behind dash panels in compact cars), enabling discreet installation of OBD modules.
3. Customizable & Versatile
- Multiple pin configurations (16-pin, 9-pin, etc.) – supports OBD2 diagnostics, CAN/LIN bus systems, and aftermarket accessories (GPS trackers).
- Custom branding/colors available for bulk orders (MOQ 500 units).
4. Durable Automotive-Grade Build
- Impact-resistant ABS withstands vibration, UV exposure, and chemical spills (e.g., oil, coolant), ensuring 5+ years of service life.
5. Plug-and-Play Integration
- Pre-molded housing with secure latch – no additional assembly required for OBD2 connectors or (wiring harnesses).
Applications
1. Automotive Diagnostics
- Enclose OBD2 scanners, code readers, or data loggers for professional workshops or DIY enthusiasts.
2. Aftermarket Accessories
- Window lifters : Protect control modules with insulated, flame-retardant housing.
- Telematics/Fleet Management: House OBD-to-4G/Wi-Fi adapters for real-time vehicle tracking.
3. EV & Hybrid Vehicles
- Compatible with high-voltage systems (via insulated design), ideal for BMS (battery management) diagnostics.
4. Custom Wiring Harnesses
- Use as a protective shell for OBD2 connectors in custom builds (e.g., racing cars, modified motorcycles).
