Why Choose the ILME MKAXWVG20 Hood?

The ILME MKAXWVG20 is a compact W-TYPE metal connector hood designed for reliable rectangular multipole connections in industrial machinery, automation and control equipment. Manufactured from zinc die-cast metal, it combines robust enclosure construction with a stainless steel locking lever and straight M20 top cable entry.

Designed around the compact size 21.21 enclosure format, the MKAXWVG20 provides mechanical protection for compatible ILME connector inserts while maintaining a small installation footprint. Its W-TYPE construction is intended for demanding industrial environments, while the single stainless steel lever provides secure mechanical coupling with compatible mating components.

The enclosure is rated IP44 in its standard configuration and can achieve IP66 / IP67 / IP69 with the separately specified ILME CKR 65 sealing kit when correctly assembled with compatible components. An FKM gasket, RAL 9005 black finish and operating temperature range from -40 °C to +125 °C further support use in demanding industrial installations.

W-TYPE Protection for Demanding Industrial Connections

Industrial connector hoods such as the ILME MKAXWVG20 provide a protective enclosure around compatible multipole inserts while creating a robust transition between the electrical connector and incoming cable. Its straight M20 top entry makes it particularly suitable where cabling approaches the connector directly, while the stainless steel lever provides a durable locking interface for repeated connection and maintenance.

The W-TYPE construction combines a zinc die-cast enclosure, FKM gasket and stainless steel lever for demanding industrial service. For installations requiring increased ingress protection, the enclosure can achieve IP66, IP67 and IP69 when the appropriate CKR 65 kit is fitted and the complete connector assembly is correctly installed.
