Looking for a 2 pole waterproof 50A DC plug and socket

[ProDave]

For the 12V connection on my outboard motor.

Need an in line plug and socket, 2 pole 12V 50A able to take 10mm cable and must be waterproof.

I was previously advised to use a pair of Anderson connectors, but they lasted just 1 year in the marine environment before the plastic cracked and the bits that fell off revealed rusted contacts. So whatever I buy next needs to be properly waterproof.

Any ideas?

you can get ip rated covers for anderson connectors

failing that, a 63a plug & socket?

Thanks I did not know about the waterproof boots. I have ordered some. 63A connectors would be way too big and clumsy.

Sadly my very quick search didn’t find the male version but 60A IP67 rated and used in the marine industry, also look for Corrison Block grease, excellent marine grease for electrical contacts
