WF Series Aviation Connectors Configurations and Specs
XS8 2-4 Pin Push-Pull Aviation Socket Connector Overview
The XS8 2-4 Pin Push-Pull Aviation Socket Connector is a circular connector designed for industrial automation, aerospace instrumentation, and precision equipment. Its push-pull locking mechanism enables fast, secure, and tool-free connections, supporting applications where frequent mating cycles and reliable performance are required.
With a 2-4 pin configuration, this connector balances compactness with flexibility, accommodating power, signal, or mixed circuits within a single interface.
Push-Pull Mechanism: Quick, Secure, and Maintenance-Friendly
Unlike traditional screw-lock aviation connectors, the XS8 series uses a tool-free push-pull design that:
- Enables rapid connection and disconnection, reducing assembly or maintenance time
- Provides automatic locking to prevent accidental disconnection in high-vibration environments
- Maintains stable electrical performance across repeated mating cycles
- Optimizes panel space with a compact circular form factor
This design suits control cabinets, sensor networks, aerospace instruments, and industrial machinery.
Key Features
-
2-4 Pin Layouts: Flexible options for signal, power, or mixed circuits, enabling compact multi-line integration.
-
Push-Pull Socket Design: Ensures secure, fast, and repeatable connections without tools.

Selection Considerations
When selecting the XS8 2-4 Pin Push-Pull Aviation Socket Connector, confirm the following with your engineering team:
- Mating plug type and gender (male/female) required for your application
- Pin count (2, 3, or 4) and pinout arrangement
- Cable outside diameter and conductor size for termination
- Electrical load (current and voltage) and environmental exposure
- Panel mounting dimensions and space constraints
For detailed electrical ratings, contact specifications, and material data, refer to the Technical Specifications section. For related configurations, see the WF Series Aviation Connectors Configurations and Specs or the XS8 4 Core Aviation Connector for Compact Industrial Applications.
Unsuitable Use Cases
The XS8 push-pull connector is not intended for high-current power distribution above its rated capacity, nor for applications requiring hermetic sealing or submersion. For higher pin counts or different locking mechanisms, consider other series in the aviation connector range.
Inquiry Checklist
To receive an accurate quotation and configuration recommendation, please provide:
- Required pin count and gender (plug or socket)
- Mating connector type and pinout drawing if available
