The T Series DHG floating socket brings alignment tolerance to the micro waterproof range. It is available with nut mounting or PCB termination in the compact 0T–3T shell sizes, and it keeps the sealing level of the T Series while simplifying assembly in small housings.

Why floating matters in a micro shell
Miniature housings leave very little space around the connector, so machining tolerances are hardest to hold exactly there. The floating travel compensates that deviation during mating, protecting the pins and solder joints instead of forcing them into alignment — the reason this socket is the standard choice for compact sealed devices.
Mounting options
Two versions cover the usual builds: nut mounting for panel installation, and PCB termination for direct board mounting. Both keep the same floating behavior and sealing class, so the choice follows your housing design rather than the connector.
Sealing and working range
The series covers IP66 through IP68, so the socket can serve anything from rain-exposed panels to fully immersed equipment; confirm the exact class for your configuration in the inquiry. The working temperature of -55 °C to +250 °C covers cold storage, outdoor heat and solder-adjacent processes alike, and the socket is specified for more than 3,000 mating cycles.
Where it is used
Typical applications are portable measurement devices, compact cameras and sealed handheld equipment.
The cable-side counterpart is the T Series TGG micro waterproof straight plug with push-pull locking in the same shell sizes.
Questions buyers ask before ordering
IP66 or IP68 — which do I need?
The series spans both. IP66 is the usual choice for splash and rain exposure; IP68 for immersion. Tell us the environment the socket will face and we will confirm the class for your shell size.
Nut or PCB mounting?
Nut mounting suits a through-panel installation; PCB termination suits a board-mounted build. Both are available versions of this socket.
What should an inquiry include?
The pin count (2–30), the mounting style, your shell size limit, the sealing class required, and the plug model you plan to mate it with.
