Got to pick through a load of avionics scrap. Unfortunately they pulled most of the boards but the connectors are some serious stuff. Heavy gold plated pins that run plated full length through the connector. Every part ive been able to identify has been millspec. Have a bunch of type o relays too but unfortunately Chris is out of the office and I can't find out if they're something boardsort would buy. Sounds like they have good value as specialized e-scrap

They definitely take them.

The two on the right are fine as connectors. I’ve sent stuff like that myself enough times. Some old A/V and computing ends are the same size or larger.

You’ll need confirmation from them for the round plugs (should be fine I’m thinking) and anything heavily reinforced though (different weight characteristics).

Any idea on the relays lostinlodos? Im going to just take them back probably unless. No processing for me to do on them

I submitted stuff exactly like that as Connector Ends. No problem. Gold and a lot of heavy metal for the connectors part.
It wasn't from avionics. But. It was that type of stuff. Heavy industrial. Mining equipment.
Here to learn like everybody else.
My evaluations are my own opinion.
