Hermetic connectors provide a gas-tight seal between electrical conductors and a connector body, preventing fluid or atmospheric ingress across a pressure boundary in avionics, instrumentation, and propulsion system applications; they typically incorporate glass-to-metal or ceramic-to-metal sealing technologies, using materials such as Kovar, stainless steel, and borosilicate glass, with termination options including solder cups, pins, and MIL-DTL-26482 or MIL-DTL-38999 compliant interfaces.
