14 pin plug

[gordon stephenson]

Hope some one can fix me up, Does anybody have a TYCO size 17 - 14 pin plug for fitting to a tig pedal?
Please P.M. me with price etc.
Thank you, Gordon.

I've found servoconnectors can usually supply most types of plugs / sockets.

Farnell do them, here

Pic is a socket, but the description says plug....

I did have a quick search, but they all seem to sell them in component form, buy the body.then cable camp and even the pins are all sold separately,Will give them a ring and see what I can sort out.
Thanks.
P.S. just thought somebody may have had one hanging around,

I missed that bit, so they do. Makes for a dear job at 50 odd pence per pin!

all the pins might not be used you might be able to get a smaller plug and socket

Definitely 14 pin TYCO plug, but only 8 pins are used, but I will probably order a full set.
Managed to find a seller that will do the complete plug for £14-20p.
Rang Tec-Arc at York earlier, they wanted £24-00 plus vat =£28-80 probably with postage extra!!
Thanks for the input chaps.

Did the foortpedal from the USA not come with the Amph plug already fitted? Did you speak to Rapid Welding I wondered why I had a email from there service engineer asking for prices for them haha.

Glad you got it sorted.

Hello Matt,
Yes, Pedal arrived ok, But plug mis-match was my own fault! I had not looked closely at the T220 and "assumed" it would be a 14 pin Amphenol plug that was needed,The same one used by Miller on their machines. It turns out on having a proper look it it a TYCO size - 17 - 14 pin. so still held up for a little while,
Thanks again for your help.
Best regards Gordon.

Gordon.

Does it actually need all 14 pins for such a simple function? Think mine uses 5 pins, 2 for the switching and three for the potentiometer.
I may have something lying around at work if you fancy converting the unit... most of those multipole connectors are ludicrously expensive, especially the likes of ITT-Cannon.

Hello Wedg1e,
Thanks for the offer,but I want to keep such a lovely machine original,
you are correct, only 8 pins are used and 3 of them are jumped together, Don't know the reason for the jumpers but maybe for some other function,
Gordon.
