Why Choose the ILME CRK04R Red Coding Pin?
The ILME CRK04R, also designated CR K04R, is a red plastic coding pin for CK, CKS, JK and JKS 04 inserts. It provides mechanical polarisation between compatible male and female connector inserts, helping prevent incorrect mating when several identical connectors are installed close together but serve different electrical functions.
Designed specifically for the compact 04 insert format, the CRK04R can be configured in compatible male and female inserts to create defined mating combinations. ILME specifies four coding possibilities for the CR K04R / CR K04G coding system, allowing up to four connectors of the same type with different functions to be safely positioned alongside one another.
The coding pin is manufactured from red plastic and weighs just 0.10 g. It is a simple but effective accessory for machinery, automation and control installations where positive mechanical differentiation between otherwise identical connector assemblies is required.
Key Advantages
- Provides mechanical coding and polarisation of compatible connector inserts.
- Designed for CK, CKS, JK and JKS 04 inserts.
- Suitable for both compatible male and female inserts.
- Supports four coding possibilities within the CK/CKS 04 coding system.
- Helps prevent incorrect coupling of visually identical connectors serving different functions.
- Distinctive red colour provides quick visual identification.
- Lightweight plastic construction designed specifically for the ILME insert system.
- Original ILME accessory for machinery, automation and industrial connector assemblies.
Key Features
- ILME connector coding pin.
- Specified for CK/CKS/JK/JKS 04 inserts.
- Red identification colour.
- Plastic construction.
- Suitable for compatible male and female insert configurations.
- Provides mechanical restrictions that prevent unintended connector combinations.

Reliable Mechanical Coding for Compact Connector Systems
Industrial machinery can contain several identical connectors positioned side by side while each connector carries signals or power for a different function. ILME's coding system allows compatible male and female inserts to be mechanically configured so that an unintended connector combination cannot be correctly coupled.
The red CRK04R forms part of this polarisation system for CK and CKS 04 inserts. Together with the available coding configurations, it allows up to four connectors of the same type but with different functions to be installed alongside one another while retaining mechanical differentiation between the intended mating pairs.
Typical Applications
- ILME CK and CKS 04 connector assemblies.
- Compatible JK and JKS 04 insert applications.
- Mechanical polarisation of identical industrial connectors.
- Industrial machinery and machine tools.
- Factory automation systems.
- Robotics and automated production equipment.
- Material handling and conveyor systems.
- OEM equipment with multiple compact connector interfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the ILME CRK04R used for?
The CRK04R is a red plastic coding pin for CK, CKS, JK and JKS 04 inserts, used to mechanically polarise compatible connector combinations and help prevent incorrect mating.
Which ILME inserts are compatible with the CRK04R?
ILME specifies the CRK04R for CK/CKS/JK/JKS 04 inserts. It is particularly used within the CK and CKS 04 connector coding system.
How many coding possibilities does the CRK04R provide?
The ILME CRK04R coding system supports four coding possibilities, allowing compatible connectors of the same type to be mechanically differentiated according to their intended function.
What material and colour is the CRK04R?
The CRK04R is manufactured from plastic and is red. The related CRK04G coding pin provides a yellow coding option.
Why use coding pins with CK and CKS 04 connectors?
Coding pins help prevent incorrect connection between otherwise identical connector assemblies. ILME's coding arrangement allows up to four connectors of the same type with different functions to be installed alongside one another while retaining defined mating combinations.
Trusted by Industrial Engineers Worldwide
ILME coding accessories provide machine builders, panel builders and maintenance engineers with a straightforward mechanical method of polarising compact connector assemblies, helping ensure that identical connectors assigned to different functions are correctly matched.
