The 1500 and 2000 series metal shell subsea connectors feature machined 316L stainless steel or titanium alloy housings — delivering the highest mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and pressure rating of any connector series in the product range. The metal shell construction is specified for the most demanding subsea environments: deep-ocean research equipment, heavy-duty ROV work-class tooling, offshore oil and gas instrumentation, and long-life permanent subsea observatories where connector replacement is impractical. The flange-mount (FCR) and bulkhead-mount (BCR) bodies are machined to close tolerances for repeatable sealing performance across thousands of mate-demate cycles.
8-pin female bulkhead-mounted 1500 series connector for threaded panel mounting. Part of the 1500 Series stainless steel metal shell range rated to 6,000 m (600 bar). All contacts are gold-plated copper alloy for low contact resistance and corrosion resistance over the connector service life. The bcr mount provides a threaded bulkhead penetration for subsea equipment housings. Available with matching mating male pin body.

The BCR1508F is a 8-pin female bulkhead-mounted subsea electrical connector from RV POWER's Metal Shell 1500 Series. The bulkhead-mounting design uses a threaded body that passes through a single panel hole with a backnut for retention — ideal for enclosures where flange mounting is impractical and space is at a premium. The 316L stainless steel body provides exceptional seawater corrosion resistance and mechanical strength, making the BCR1508F the connector of choice for demanding ROV, subsea, and offshore applications.
The BCR1508F's single-hole bulkhead mounting simplifies installation compared to flange designs:
