Military Specification Cable Assembly for Defense and Aerospace
As a specialized military spec cable assembly manufacturer, OurPCB delivers MIL-STD compliant cables for defense and aerospace applications. Our cable assembly expertise covers MIL-DTL-38999, MIL-DTL-5015, MIL-DTL-26482 circular connectors, and MIL-C-27500 aerospace wire with full traceability documentation.
Mil-spec connectors from Amphenol and TE Connectivity meet stringent requirements for reliability in extreme conditions. MIL-DTL-38999 provides high-performance aerospace connectivity, while MIL-DTL-5015 serves general-purpose military applications.
Environmental testing per MIL-STD-810 validates performance under temperature extremes, vibration, shock, humidity, and altitude. EMC compliance per MIL-STD-461 ensures electromagnetic compatibility. Shielded cables and proper termination techniques meet EMI requirements.
Applications include defense ground vehicles and weapons systems, aerospace aircraft and spacecraft, naval ships and submarines, and government/federal programs. Combined with high-temperature cables and circular connectors, we provide complete mil-spec solutions.
We provide first article inspection (FAI) documentation and full material traceability. Testing capabilities include continuity, insulation resistance, and hi-pot per specifications. Contact us for military specification cable assembly quotes.
From the Case Bank
A German industrial electrical systems integrator required cable harnesses for a high-volume annual program but faced sourcing constraints on specified connectors.
The originally specified STOCKO connectors faced procurement limitations, and the required PTC components (EPCOS B59100A1080-A40) had a long 12-14 week lead time, threatening the overall project timeline for a 200kpcs/year program.
Proposed Lumberg connectors as a qualified alternative to STOCKO. Provided detailed specification comparisons and emphasized Lumberg's shorter MOQ and better delivery times to offset the PTC lead time bottleneck, while remaining transparent about the slightly higher price point of the alternative.
The customer accepted the alternative for evaluation, agreeing to sample the Lumberg-based assemblies, which kept the high-volume annual program viable despite initial component sourcing bottlenecks.
- 100kpcs/year per product (200kpcs total annual volume)
- PTC model: EPCOS B59100A1080-A40
- PTC lead time: 12-14 weeks
- Connectors evaluated: STOCKO vs. Lumberg
Military Spec FAQ
We work with common military specifications including MIL-DTL-38999, MIL-DTL-5015, MIL-DTL-26482, MIL-C-27500 wire, and others. We have tooling and training for proper mil-spec connector processing.
For defense projects requiring ITAR compliance, we work with registered facilities and can support controlled documentation requirements. Please discuss specific ITAR needs with our team.
We perform continuity testing, insulation resistance, and hi-pot testing per applicable specifications. We can support environmental testing requirements per MIL-STD-810 and EMC testing per MIL-STD-461 through partner labs.
