May 16, 2008 -- Newark has developed an interactive online tool that enables engineers to source the right connector by comparing images, or by selecting a specific application or type.
Newark says it developed the tool in response to customers' need to find the right connector without exact specifications. The distributor stocks more than 163,000 different connectors from 96 brands from companies including Tyco Electronics, Molex, 3M, Amphenol, Wago, Wieland, Weidmuller, FCI, Harting and Harwin.
"With tens of thousands of connectors available, it can be frustrating to find the right connector if you don't have a manufacturer's part number," points out Barry Litwin, senior VP of marketing at Newark. "Design engineers can now narrow their search by application or type, while maintenance customers can visually compare the connector they need to replace with an image."
Other tools available at www.newark.com/selectors include a custom power supply configurator and a shrink tubing selector.
