Switchcraft 90 Degree 1/4

The Switchcraft 226 is a professional-grade, right-angled, 1/4-inch mono plug designed for cable-mounting. It features a robust construction with a nickel-plated brass tip rod and handle for excellent conductivity and durability. The housing and sleeve are made from a copper and nickel-plated zinc die-cast, offering strength and reliable shielding. Internal connections are ensured by a tin-plated brass tip terminal and a tin-plated steel sleeve terminal, all insulated with high-quality thermoplastic material.

Engineered for superior performance in demanding audio environments, this plug boasts an exceptional minimum initial insulation resistance of 50,000 MΩ. It operates reliably across a wide temperature range from -20 to +65°C, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. The compact 90-degree design is ideal for saving space and reducing strain on cable connections, which helps prevent damage and signal interruption.
