FAQ

Common RFQ questions

What information is needed for an overmolded cable assembly quote?

Please provide drawings or sketches, connector part numbers, cable type, cable length, overmold geometry, material preference, quantity, testing requirements, and certification requirements.

Can overmolding improve strain relief?

Overmolding can help distribute mechanical stress around connectors, cable exits, breakouts, and other vulnerable points when geometry and material are specified correctly.

Can MTTJ quote waterproof molded cable assemblies?

MTTJ can review sealed or outdoor versions when the requested IP level, geometry, material, and validation test requirements are supplied.
