[Dsg-hallc_nps] Radiall connector

[Aaron Brown]

Mindy, I've looped in Greg.

Hi Greg,
First, Happy New Year!
Please see below the email from Mindy (and attachments) regarding the strain relief for the Radiall 52-pin connectors.
I wonder if it's possible that the connectors were shipped with the wrong screws?
That's really the only reason I can think of for this situation.
If anyone else has any ideas...

-- Aaron

I have a new issue with the Radiall connectors. The last five connectors I tried to attach have strain relief screws that won't tighten. I tried one from a previous order, it tightened properly. The first picture shows the strain relief attached to a connector. The second picture is a top view of the strain relief. They look like they're made of different materials, the old ones are shinier. The last picture is a side by side view, the screw holes look like the depths are different.

The screws are slightly loose in the holes, even before I try to attach them to the connector. Poor quality control?
