Hermeus Halcyon Mach5 aircraft

X-Lok’s harsh environment backshell and transition interconnect system is the first tool-less, reversible, easy-access, non-destructive disassembly, reusable, universal system.

It is the first to be designed specifically for open wrappable sleeve technology, yet it works with standard braids.

It eliminates all the expensive and often wasteful components used to build electrical wiring harnesses.

Using the latest Additive Manufacturing technology and high temperature, high performance thermosets, approved by NASA, X-Lok’s X1 PS series backshells, for MIL-DTL-38999 circular connectors, are typically 10x faster to assemble and save 42% - 83% on weight, making a real contribution to lighter, more efficient spacecraft, satellites and aircraft.

Simple, 90% lighter, XT snap-together transition housings, together with our unique XC Micro friction-self-locking lacing-tape ties, which weigh just 0.06 - 0.26 grams, make cable branches with ease, replacing labour-intensive, hand-made cable bundle splits.

XD rectangular D-sub backshells, typically 80% lighter than pressed aluminium plated versions, substantially reduce mass in satellites and spacecraft, where launch weight is critical.
