DTM MASTER KIT NICKLE SOLID

Deutsch DTM Master Kit Nickel Solid — Motorsport Connector Kit for Professional Harness Building

The DTM Master Kit Nickel Solid (DTM-MASTER-KIT-1) is the full professional kit for Deutsch DTM miniature connector harness builds. Containing a comprehensive range of DTM housing sizes with nickel solid size 20 contacts and wedgelocks, this kit provides complete workshop coverage for DTM connector terminations on ECU harnesses, instrument cluster wiring, and any motorsport circuit group where the DTM compact format is the design choice.

Deutsch DTM Connector Series — The Motorsport Wiring Standard

Deutsch DT and DTM series connectors are used in more motorsport wiring harnesses than any other connector family outside of mil-spec circular connectors. Their combination of IP67 environmental sealing (when correctly assembled with wedgelock), vibration resistance, wide temperature operating range (−55°C to +125°C), and broad availability of housing sizes makes them the default choice for motorsport harness circuit interfaces. The DTM series uses size 20 contacts; the DT standard (size 16 contacts) format covers applications where a different shell diameter is required. Both families share the same crimp tooling family, simplifying the workshop tool inventory.

What Is Included

Deutsch connector kits from Arctic Performance Parts contain connector housings in the most common circuit-count configurations, matching wedgelocks, and nickel solid size 20 contacts. Separate heat shrink boots are available and recommended for exposed motorsport harness applications requiring rear-of-connector environmental sealing. The kit format provides immediate on-hand inventory for harness building without specifying individual part numbers for each housing size.

Nickel vs Gold Contacts

Nickel solid contacts suit power circuits and general-purpose motorsport signal wiring. Gold solid contacts provide superior corrosion resistance and a lower, more stable contact resistance — the preferred specification for precision sensor circuits, ECU signal wiring, and applications where long-term contact integrity in an aggressive environment is critical. This kit includes nickel contacts, suitable for the vast majority of motorsport harness power and signal circuit applications.
