Stereo 3.5mm Plug ShiverPeaks 50100 — plastic housing, 3.5 mm stereo audio connector

ShiverPeaks Stereo 3.5mm Plug 50100 is a compact 3.5 mm TRS stereo audio connector with a plastic housing designed for assembling and repairing headphone, speaker and line-level audio cables. The plug provides standard left and right channel contacts and a molded plastic shell that offers basic insulation and strain relief for soldered or crimped connections. It is intended for situations where a reliable, low-profile 3.5 mm stereo connection is required.

Advantages

The connector combines a standard TRS contact arrangement for stereo audio with a lightweight plastic housing that reduces weight and cost while providing electrical insulation. Its compact design simplifies cable routing in tight spaces and the housing supports mechanical protection of the solder or crimp termination. The plug is compatible with common 3.5 mm stereo jacks and works with typical stranded audio cable conductors.

Suitable for

• Repairing headphones, earphones and portable speakers
• DIY audio cable assemblies and custom patch leads
• Connecting portable audio players, smartphones and tablets to AUX inputs
• Replacing damaged connectors on computer or media device cables

Key specifications

• Connector type: 3.5 mm TRS (stereo)
• Housing material: plastic
• Contact configuration: tip (left), ring (right), sleeve (ground)
• Termination: suitable for solder or crimp wiring
• Application: headphone, speaker and line-level audio cables
• Design: compact, low-profile shell for basic strain relief and insulation

How to use

Strip the cable jacket and separate the conductors to prepare for soldering or crimping. Insert the conductors into the designated contact points: tip for left channel, ring for right channel and sleeve for ground. Secure the electrical connections according to the connector’s termination type, then assemble the plastic housing over the termination to provide mechanical protection. Test the completed cable with an appropriate audio source and playback device to verify left/right channels and grounding continuity.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, use stranded audio cable of appropriate gauge, avoid excessive bending near the connector, and ensure solder joints are clean and mechanically supported before closing the housing. When replacing connectors, verify jack compatibility and channel wiring to prevent reversed audio channels.
