SC350 350A High-Compatibility Forklift Battery Quick Connector, T2 Silver-Plated, 600V

Model: SC350 bipolar fast plug connector

Product Specifications

Drop-in Compatibility with Your Existing SC-Series Fleet

Swapping a tired connector should not force a charger rebuild. The SC350 keeps the same mating geometry and terminal spacing as the SC-series parts already on your trucks, so the worn plug comes off and the replacement goes straight on with the existing handle and cover.

• 100% compatible with same-series connectors from established makers (e.g. Yazaki)
• Available in SC50, SC175 and SC350 terminal sizes to match your cables
• Supplied with a matched handle and cover, ready to fit

Kit Contents and Packaging

Each SC350 leaves as a working kit rather than a bare connector: the plug body, its matched handle and the protective cover are packed together, so a workshop does not discover the missing cover halfway through a retrofit. Cartons are marked with the lot number that ties back to the inspection record for that shipment.

For distributors handling their own labelling, neutral packing is available and private-label marking can be applied to the housing and the carton, letting the connector sit alongside the rest of your catalogue without a second handling step.

Ordering Notes for Retrofit Projects

The two questions that decide a retrofit order are how many trucks are involved and what cable section they already run. Answer those and the family choice falls into place: SC350 for the heaviest leads, SC175 and SC50 for lighter trucks in the same fleet, all sharing one mating system so the spares bin stays small.

Stock units move in three to five working days and tailored builds in five to seven days after payment. Where a site wants to trial before committing, samples can be produced to drawing, which is usually the quickest way to settle a fit question that no catalogue page can answer.

Matching Terminal Size to Cable

Retrofit projects usually stall on one detail: the cable already in the truck. SC350 terminals accept 2/0, 3/0, 4/0 and 300 AWG cable, while the same family covers SC175 in 4 AWG to 0/1 AWG and SC50 in 10/12 AWG to 6 AWG. Checking the lug against the existing lead before ordering avoids a plug that fits the charger but not the cable.

Where a fleet runs more than one truck size, standardising on the family rather than a single part number keeps spares manageable without forcing every lead to be re-terminated.

Retrofitting an Older Charger

Older chargers are rarely the obstacle; the plug on the end of the lead usually is. Because the SC350 keeps the same mating geometry as the SC-series parts already in service, the worn plug can be cut off, the new one terminated, and the existing handle and cover reused, so the charger itself is never opened.

The first unit on a site is worth fitting as a trial: mate it a few times, confirm the latch engages cleanly and the cover closes, then roll the rest of the fleet over. That single trial catches cable-size mismatches before they become a batch of returns.

Service Life in Mixed Fleets

Connectors in mixed fleets wear at different rates because they are mated by different hands. Recording which truck a plug came from turns a vague replacement cycle into a real one: the units that fail early are usually the ones on the route with the most swaps per shift, and those are the trucks that justify a spare kit on site.

T2 silver plating and the PC110U shell hold up well in daily charging duty; the variable is handling, not the material, which is why the matched handle and cover are part of the kit rather than an afterthought.

Frequently asked about this connector

Q: Will the SC350 fit my existing charger plugs?

A: Yes. It shares mating geometry and terminal spacing with SC-series connectors already in service, including Yazaki-compatible parts, so existing handles and covers swap straight over.

Q: Which cable sizes are supported?

A: The SC350 terminal takes 2/0 to 300 AWG cable; the same family covers the SC50 and SC175 ranges, so mixed fleets can standardise on one connector system.

Compatibility Validation Before Shipping

Drop-in replacement only works if the parts genuinely mate. Before an SC350 order leaves for a mixed fleet, sample plugs are mated against the Yazaki-compatible SC-series connectors already in service to confirm insertion force, latch feel and terminal alignment, rather than trusting a drawing alone.

The same check covers cable fit, so a workshop running SC50 or SC175 leads can standardise on one connector family without replacing handles, covers or charger leads. That is the difference between a connector that fits a catalogue and one that fits the truck in front of you.

The wider process follows the same discipline: production under ISO9001 and ISO/TS16949, 100% electrical testing before packing, dielectric verification at 2500V DC, and certification coverage across UL, TUV, CE, CSA, SAA, PSE, NF and BS for export markets. Material and plating records are kept per shipment.

Commercially, the family is built for retrofit projects. Stock units ship in three to five working days, tailored builds in five to seven days after payment, samples can be produced to your drawing, private-label marking is available, and the connectors are manufactured to the environmental requirements of the markets they serve.
