The Anderson SB connector is the industry-standard high-current power connector for battery applications, forklifts, golf carts, solar arrays, and UPS systems. Available in current ratings from 50A (SB50) to 350A (SB350), the SB series uses a genderless (hermaphroditic) design where both halves are identical — simplifying inventory and eliminating the possibility of incorrect polarity when color-coded housings are used. The connector features silver or tin-plated copper contacts, a spring-loaded contact system for consistent low-resistance connections, and a simple push-together mating mechanism that requires no tools. Anderson SB connectors are rated for over 10,000 mating cycles, making them ideal for applications with frequent connect/disconnect cycles like battery swapping on forklifts and floor scrubbers.
