Rectangular connectors
Quick and easy handling, robustness, flexibility in use, a long life cycle and, ideally, a tool-free assembly - whatever you expect from a connector – Han® rectangular connectors won’t disappoint you. You’ll get even more.
Han® rectangular connectors are the market standard for heavy-duty industrial connectors to enable the modularisation of machines and facilities. Designed for harsh environments Han® rectangular connectors ensure the reliable and pluggable transmission of power, signal and data, meeting the highest requirements for industrial applications.
In addition to its rectangular heavy-duty standard design, the Han® range offers modular, compact and lightweight connectors that deliver a wide range of solutions for the machinery, transportation, energy, automotive and device connectivity sectors.

Modular connectors
Rectangular connectors are the perfect base to get used of the advantages of modular connectors, thus offering to integrate power, signal, data and even compressed air into a single unique interface. As the inventor of the modular industrial connector, HARTING is offering the market standard for modular connectors - the Han-Modular® series.
Users can optimally design connectors to supply machinery and equipment. This is made possible by combining individual modules for different transmission media in standard-sized industrial connector housings. Han-Modular® offers easy-to-handle, highly flexible solutions with a small footprint and versatile functionality.
Introduced in 2022, Han-Modular® Domino Modules open up new possibilities for optimisation, including space and weight savings of up to 50%, thus reducing the CO2 footprint.
