JST-RCY Receptacle with Wire (15cm)

Reliable 2-Pin JST-RCY Power Receptacle Pigtail

The JST-RCY Receptacle with Wire (15cm) is an essential, reliable component for safe power distribution in small-scale electronics. Designed primarily for low-voltage, low-current DC applications, the JST-RCY connector ecosystem is widely used to connect small battery packs to microcontrollers, motor drivers, and RC vehicle chassis.

This product features the receptacle (female plastic housing), which securely shrouds the electrical connection point. This design is highly recommended for the power source or distribution side of your circuit, as the protective outer housing prevents exposed metal pins from accidentally shorting against your robot’s metal chassis or carbon fiber frame. The 15cm pigtail leads come pre-stripped at the ends, allowing for immediate soldering, inline splicing, or integration into screw terminals.

Key Features:

• Industry Standard Form Factor: Fits perfectly with all standard 2-pin JST-RCY male plugs commonly found on small RC LiPo and NiMH battery packs.
• Pre-Crimped Pigtail: Eliminates the need for specialized, expensive JST crimping tools—simply strip, solder, and insulate.
• Color-Coded Leads: Equipped with standard Red (Positive) and Black (Negative/Ground) wiring to ensure correct polarity during installation.
• Short-Circuit Protection: Fully shrouded receptacle design insulates the conductive pins from external interference or accidental contact.
