Buy Deutsch DTP Connectors in Australia

If you are looking to buy Deutsch DTP connectors in Australia, 12Volt Motorsports stocks Deutsch DTP connector kits for high-current motorsport wiring, automotive wiring, fuel pumps, thermofans, power feeds, off-road wiring and custom harness builds. We are based in Altona Meadows in Melbourne's western suburbs and ship Australia-wide.

Deutsch DTP connectors are the larger high-current version of the Deutsch connector family. They are commonly used where Deutsch DTM or DT connectors are not large enough for the wire size or current draw.

What Are Deutsch DTP Connectors?

Deutsch DTP connectors are sealed electrical connectors designed for higher-current wiring applications. They use size 12 contacts and are commonly rated up to 25A per pin, depending on the terminal, wire size and application.

In motorsport wiring, DTP connectors are commonly used for fuel pumps, thermofans, water pumps, power feeds, heavier auxiliary circuits, off-road accessories and higher-current removable harness sections.

When Should I Use Deutsch DTP Connectors?

Use Deutsch DTP connectors when the circuit current or wire size is too large for Deutsch DTM or Deutsch DT connectors. DTP connectors are suited to higher-current circuits where a sealed, serviceable connector is required.

DTP connectors are not usually needed for low-current sensor wiring or ECU signal wiring. For those applications, use Deutsch DTM connectors. For medium-current general automotive wiring, lighting, solenoids and relay circuits, Deutsch DT connectors are often the better choice.

Deutsch DTP Connector Sizes

Deutsch DTP connectors are commonly used in lower pin counts because they are designed for larger terminals and higher-current wiring. Choose the pin count based on the number of high-current circuits required, wire size, current draw and serviceability.

DTP Pin Count Common Use
2 pin Fuel pumps, thermofans, water pumps, power feeds and high-current two-wire circuits
4 pin Grouped high-current circuits, dual pump wiring, fan wiring and heavier removable harness sections

What Should I Use With Deutsch DTP Connectors?

Deutsch DTP connectors are commonly used with larger gauge Tefzel wire, Raychem DR25 heatshrink, Sumitomo W5DL adhesive heatshrink, Deutsch connectors, power distribution components and suitable crimp tooling when building professional motorsport wiring harnesses.

For a reliable DTP connector assembly, wire size, current draw, terminal choice and crimp quality matter. High-current circuits need correct wire sizing and proper crimping to avoid voltage drop, heat and long-term reliability issues.

What are Deutsch DTP connectors used for?

Deutsch DTP connectors are used for higher-current wiring such as fuel pumps, thermofans, water pumps, power feeds, heavier auxiliary circuits and high-current motorsport harness sections.

What is the current rating of Deutsch DTP connectors?

Deutsch DTP connectors are commonly rated up to 25A per pin, depending on the contact, wire size and application. Always check the circuit current, wire size and connector rating before choosing the connector series.

Are Deutsch DTP connectors waterproof?

Deutsch DTP connectors are sealed connectors designed for harsh environments. When assembled correctly with the correct terminals, seals and wedges, they provide strong protection against moisture, dirt and vibration.

Should I use Deutsch DTP or DT connectors?

Use Deutsch DT connectors for medium-current general-purpose automotive circuits. Use Deutsch DTP connectors for higher-current circuits where DT does not provide enough current capacity or wire size support.

Should I use Deutsch DTP for sensor wiring?

No, Deutsch DTP connectors are usually too large for normal sensor wiring. For sensor wiring and ECU signal circuits, Deutsch DTM connectors are usually the better choice.

Do I need a special crimp tool for Deutsch DTP connectors?

Yes. Deutsch DTP contacts should be crimped with the correct tool for the terminal type. Correct crimping is especially important on high-current circuits to avoid voltage drop, heat and reliability problems.
