Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the electrical specifications for the 29-59056 SB350 connector?
A: The 29-59056 is rated for 350A continuous current and 600V maximum voltage with 2/0 AWG wire gauge capability. This rating makes it suitable for primary battery interconnects in most electric lift trucks, forklifts, and material handling equipment. Confirm your equipment amperage and voltage requirements match these specifications before ordering.
Q: Why is the 29-59056 color-coded red?
A: The red color housing on the 29-59056 is a mating prevention feature that corresponds to a specific battery circuit function in lift truck systems. Red SB350 connectors are typically reserved for main positive or load circuits. Match connector colors to your equipment wiring diagram to prevent incorrect connections.
Q: What materials are used in the 29-59056 connector construction?
A: The 29-59056 body is impact-resistant polycarbonate designed to withstand the mechanical stress of material handling operations. Silver-plated copper contacts ensure low resistance electrical connections and corrosion resistance. This construction extends connector life in demanding warehouse and outdoor environments.
Q: Is the 29-59056 compatible with 2/0 AWG cable?
A: Yes, the 29-59056 is designed specifically for 2/0 AWG wire. The connector pin and socket dimensions match this gauge precisely. Do not attempt to force smaller or larger gauge wire into the connector, as this causes poor electrical contact, overheating, and safety hazards.
Q: Which lift truck brands use SB350 type connectors like the 29-59056?
A: SB350 series connectors are standard across multiple lift truck manufacturers including Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, and other electric material handling equipment producers. Verify your specific equipment model uses SB350 connectors by checking your vehicle battery circuit diagram or parts manual.
Q: Can the 29-59056 be used for battery charger connections?
A: The 29-59056 is rated for on-board battery interconnections and circuit protection in lift truck systems. For battery charger connections, verify that your charger uses matching SB350 connectors and that amperage requirements do not exceed the 350A rating. Charger-specific cable assemblies may be required for safe operation.
