Has anyone ever encountered this type of connector? If so do you know what it’s called? Thanks in advance.

    They're called Sure-Seal. Used to be Cat's connector of choice before being replaced by the Deutsch DT.

    Here's the Cat part numbers for the individual housings if you're having trouble sourcing them. The pins are part number 7N7780, the sockets are 7N7779

    Harley used these so could not get polarity or lamp function confused The motor company also swapped over to Deutsch connectors in the late 90s now into CAN BUS

    Here's the complete Sure-Seal connector install info. They are a bugger to get the pins into and out of IIRC.

    The little "Insertion Tool" makes a Lovely mark in a palm when used on Aged Hardened rubber sockets.
