USB-C Female Socket with 2-Pin Molded Pigtail Cable — 3A / 30V Power Connector

When you need a USB-C charging port in a custom location — motorcycle fairing, car console, DIY power bank, or marine panel — a pre-wired molded pigtail socket eliminates the need for PCB soldering or connector crimping. This USB-C female socket comes with a factory-molded 2-pin pigtail cable, rated at 3A and 30V, ready to connect directly to your power source.

Technical Specifications

Key Features

• Factory-molded pigtail: Overmolded strain relief at the connector body prevents cable fatigue and wire breakage at the most vulnerable point — the connector-to-cable junction
• 3A / 30V rated: Supports up to 15W (5V/3A) standard USB-C charging and is compatible with 12V and 24V automotive systems (with appropriate voltage regulation)
• 2-pin power-only: Simplified wiring — connect VBUS to regulated 5V positive and GND to negative. No data line management required
• Bare wire leads: Terminate with your preferred method — crimp connectors, solder joints, or push-in terminals
• Compact socket body: Minimal panel depth for installation in thin fairings, door panels, and compact enclosures

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I connect this directly to a 12V car battery?
A: No. A 12V-to-5V DC-DC step-down converter is required. The socket is rated for 30V maximum input, but USB-C devices require a regulated 5V supply. Direct 12V connection will damage connected devices.

Q: Does this support USB-PD fast charging?
A: No. This is a 2-pin power-only connector. USB Power Delivery requires CC line communication not present in this socket.

Q: What is the difference between this and a glue-in receptacle?
A: This socket has a molded pigtail cable with factory strain relief — more durable for applications with cable movement or vibration. A glue-in receptacle has bare solder pads or short leads and is designed for static panel mounting with adhesive.
