Mating boundary

Shape is not the verdict.

Use the exact manufacturer mating component, terminal/cable and current drawing. Only Tensility 55-00050; no family-wide generalization. A source-described lock, key or dimensional resemblance is not an approved equipment connection.

How to read this profile

Textual manufacturer construction/configuration facts and explicitly labelled dimensions only. No mating-face, termination-side, contact-number layout or PCB footprint is reconstructed.

Unknowns stay unknown.

The maker centre-pin diameter field describes this plug mating bore; it is not a solid centre pin, polarity marking or voltage identifier.
Matching outer/inner diameters do not establish insertion depth, polarity, permitted power, equipment wiring or safe powered compatibility.
No numbered electrical contact assignment, hardware test, specimen measurement, fabrication approval or complete application rating/derating is established.
