Deutsch Autosport AS 6-Way Plug — Pin (Male) — Green Key (D)
The Deutsch Autosport AS 6-Way Plug Pin (Male) Connector with Green (D) Keying Insert — SKU: AS608-35PD is a professional MIL-spec-grade Deutsch Autosport AS series connector for 6-circuit sensor cluster joins and compact ECU auxiliary interfaces in race cars and high-performance vehicles across Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. Configured as a free, cable-mounted plug half that mates with a fixed flange or inline receptacle — the movable, harness-side component that disconnects for component removal, harness separation, and servicing.
Deutsch Autosport AS 6-Way — 6-circuit Circuit Configuration
The Deutsch Autosport AS series is the professional standard circular connector format for motorsport wiring — aluminium alloy shell, gold-plated contacts, positive push-pull locking, and full MIL-spec environmental sealing for race-condition reliability. The 6-circuit configuration is used for sensor cluster harness joins, ECU auxiliary sub-connectors, and compact separable points requiring 6 circuits in professional motorsport builds throughout Scandinavia. Compact 6-circuit shell — suited for sensor cluster sub-harnesses and ecu auxiliary circuit removable joins.
Pin (Male) — 6-Circuit Contact Array
This is the pin half of the 6-way AS plug pair. Six pin contacts transfer six individual circuits — the active array completing the full 6-circuit electrical path across the separable join. The corresponding socket half of the same circuit count and key colour completes the mated pair — both halves are required. AS contacts are ordered separately; select the correct contact part number for your wire gauge and current requirements.
Green Key (D) — Keying Position and Mis-Mate Prevention
Green D is the fourth and final key assignment in the Deutsch AS keying system — allocated when four 6-circuit AS plug connectors are required at the same separation point. With Yellow A, Blue B, Orange C, and Green D assigned across four pairs, four physically identical 6-circuit AS connectors can operate at the same separation point with complete mis-mate prevention under all conditions — including the fast-paced, high-pressure connector operations of a race event service environment. Four-key arrangements represent the maximum keying complexity in the Deutsch AS system and are reserved for the most elaborate full race car loom builds in professional motorsport across Norway, Sweden, and Denmark, where maximum circuit density at a single primary separation point drives the use of four parallel 6-circuit connector pairs.
Plug Configuration — The Movable Cable-Mounted Connector Half
The AS plug is the free, cable-mounted half of the connector pair — it does not mount to a panel or chassis surface. The plug travels with the removable component or sub-harness and mates into a fixed receptacle (flange-mounted or inline) to complete the electrical circuit when the assembly is connected. This makes the plug the correct specification for engine-side harness connectors that must be disconnected for engine removal, dashboard harness sub-connectors that follow a removable dashboard assembly, removable subframe harness joins, and any other separable point where one connector half must be freely movable with a removable vehicle component.
The 6-circuit AS plug is used for 6-circuit sensor cluster joins and compact ECU auxiliary interfaces across race cars and performance vehicles in Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. The plug’s free, unmounted format allows the harness builder to route the cable bundle freely from the removable component to the mating point without any chassis mounting constraint — then mate the plug directly into the fixed receptacle when the component is installed. The push-pull positive locking mechanism provides secure, vibration-resistant engagement that holds through race conditions while allowing intentional disconnection at every service interval.
