MIL Spec Circular connectors with quick release valves

[Metalshark]

Are there pre-existing MIL Spec Circular connectors with quick release valves instead of having them custom made?

 

For instance I can find 13 pins ones for radiators (4x pins for negative, 4x pins for 12v, 1x pin for PWM and 4x pins for tachometer feedback for 13 pins total covering power for the fans) but am looking to have 12mm quick release valves with 2x G1/4 on the rear of the connectors built in (for water in and out) and that looks to only be custom.

what? im so confused as to what you need from them

Using MIL Spec connectors for a custom build so I can interchange water cooling radiators using a single connector. So one connector for water in/out and all four fans. I can get a custom one made, just seeing if anyone knew if there were already ones out there instead of paying the premium (time and money) for bespoke.

oh, well looking at the one youve linked it doesnt look like theres much space for the water to travel unless im missing something

Like this, it's similar to the one you've selected they make common quick release circular connectors but just note the amount of power your pushing through it and the cabling you'll be using.

You get different sizes with differing numbers of pins. It gives you a very clean look to have a single connector with the wires/pipes coming out close to the components.

Thanks - do you know any that have also have quick release fluid pipes/valves in? Can only find more narrow ones (wires and pipes/valves) for engines without going custom.

I know they have them for lower pin count connectors but not sure for 13 pins exactly. They have bayonet type ones with a twist lock or push friction mounts. Also check to see if they are waterproof is that is something your looking for.

Will have a hunt around the DigiKey website - thanks for the tip
