Deutsch Autosport ASDD 41-Way Inline Pin (Male) Connector – Orange Key (C)
The Deutsch Autosport ASDD Series inline — SKU: ASDD112-41PC is a 41-way inline pin (male) connector fitted with a Orange (C) keying insert, designed for professional motorsport wiring harness applications where secure, mis-mate-proof mating is critical. Part of the industry-leading Deutsch Autosport connector family, the ASDD series delivers exceptional performance in the demanding electrical environments found in race cars, rally vehicles, Mazda RX-Series engine bays, and high-performance road car builds across Norway, Sweden, and Denmark.
What Is the ASDD Connector Series?
The Deutsch Autosport ASDD (Autosport Shell Design D) connector series is a compact, lightweight, high-density circular connector engineered specifically for motorsport applications. ASDD connectors feature a robust aluminium shell, positive push-pull locking mechanism, and MIL-spec-grade contact systems capable of handling the vibration, temperature extremes, and moisture exposure common in professional racing environments. The series is available in a wide range of circuit counts — from 9 to 118 ways — making it suitable for everything from simple sensor connections to full ECU main harness connectors.
Key Features
- 41 circuits — high-density contact layout in a compact shell
- Pin (Male) contacts — mates with the corresponding socket/pin inline half
- Orange keying insert (Key C) — prevents mis-mating with other keyed ASDD connectors on the same harness
- Aluminium shell construction — lightweight and vibration-resistant
- Push-pull positive locking mechanism — secure mating under race conditions
- Compatible with Autosport ASDD series contacts and accessories
- Operating temperature range: -65°C to +175°C
What Is Colour Keying Used For?
The colour-keyed insert system in the ASDD connector range is designed to prevent incorrect mating in harnesses where multiple connectors of the same circuit count are used — for example, across an engine bay, bulkhead, or ECU loom with several similar-sized connectors. Each key colour (Red, Yellow, Blue, Orange, Green) corresponds to a specific key letter (N, A, B, C, D), and only matching key connectors will mate correctly. This eliminates costly mis-connection errors during installation, servicing, or harness repair on complex race car electrical systems.
Applications
- ECU main harness bulkhead connectors
- Engine bay to chassis harness separation points
- Dash and PDM (Power Distribution Module) connectors
- Gearbox and driveline harness connectors
- Data acquisition and sensor harness separable joins
- Mazda RX-Series, turbocharged piston engine, and rally car harness builds
