What Is Corro-Shield?
Introducing CorroShield, the highest level of protection against the corrosive effects of humidity, saltwater, chemicals, water, dirt, and other contaminants. Now the patented product that the world’s largest carriers have standardized on for voice line service has been expanded to provide both voice and data connection protection. Applications are far-reaching from high humidity basement and kitchen installations, to entire communities in inland and coastal locations.
Suttle’s family of CorroShield products is designed to deliver improved performance and reduced service calls through increased connector reliability. During manufacturing, a specially formulated gel is applied to all surfaces at risk of contamination, completely surrounding the gold contact wires. When the voice or data cord is inserted, the gel forms an airtight seal around the connection, preventing corrosion and other contact problems.
The unique memory characteristics of the CorroShield gel continue to deliver long after installation. When the voice or data cord is removed from the connector, the gel will return to its original position, maintaining the airtight seal for up to one hundred insertion events.
How CorroShield Protects Your Connections
 | Prior to plug insertion, the CorroShield gel maintains an airtight seal around all conducting surfaces in the jack. |
 | The gel is displaced upon plug insertion, resulting in a protective airtight seal around the plug and jack conducting surfaces. |
625A Surface Mount Jack Assemblies
The 625C cover may be used to retro-fit an existing 020031 (4 conductor) or 020045 (6 conductor) terminal block, converting it to accept modular plug-ended line cords. The jack contacts are protected with GelGuard (tm) gel, and a captive retaining screw keeps the cover securely fastened, preventing damage to the assembly. This series is designed for mounting on baseboards, walls or other flat surfaces.
625A
The 625A Consists of a 625C jack cover connected to a 020031 (4 conductor) or 020045 (6 conductor) screw terminal block.
625AS
The 625AS consists of a 625C jack cover connected to a 42C modified base, designed to enclose the terminal screw area and protect the rear of the jack. The 625AS4NS and 625AS6NS feature Scotchlok(tm) connectors. Blunt cut leads permit easy connection with these Scotchlok(tm) connectors.
625A2 Surface Mount Jack Assemblies
The 625A2 series of surface mount jack assemblies features the labor saving advantage of a snap-on cover. The leads are either prewired to the screw terminal base, or are blunt cut for applications requiring Scotchlok connectors. A double-sided adhesive pad is provided in the package, enabling mounting on desks, filing cabinets or other surfaces where conventional mounting could be objectionable. All of the 625A2 series of surface mount jack assemblies are UL certified.
625SA Surface Mount Jack Assemblies
The 625SA series of surface mount jack assemblies features a 625T jack cover. This cover consists of a modular 4 or 6 conductor jack, protected with GelGuard gel, mounted inside a thermoplastic cover. The back of the jack is protected with a plastic barrier, sealing the rear of the jack cavity, except for a small wire entry hole. The binding posts have also been removed on the base for critical applications where Scotchlok connectors are desirable, eliminating another point of corrosion. The front modular jack opening is covered by a notched, spring-loaded, rotating access cover which protects the jack interior from contamination by dust, dirt and liquids. The access cover swings aside to permit a modular plug to enter the jack; when it swings back again, the notch fits around the plug-ended line cord, retaining the plug and also providing strain relief.
625MT Surface Mount Baseboard Jack Assemblies
The 625MT jack assembly provides easier access and greater flexibility in a baseboard jack. The compact size and low profile fit the narrow baseboards found in many residences. The jack opening, equipped with GelGuard gel, faces outward for easier customer access and the spring-loaded cover prevents entry of contaminants when the jack is not in use.
Jack Assemblies and Jack Plates

Duplex jack plates offer spring-loaded trap door options in the 625B3 versions.
625B3
The 625B3 modular jack plates are designed for two applications. First for connecting two telephones or equipment to the same line. This is done by connecting the color-coded wires from each jack to the corresponding terminals on one of the jacks along with conductors of the incoming line. Secondly, for connecting one of each telephone or device to separate outside lines. This is done by connecting the color-coded wires with the color-coded terminals on each jack. This series also offers an optional spring-loaded trap door which prevents entry of contaminants when the jack is not in use.
625D
The 625D jack plate features a clear plastic ID window for easy jack identification.
625FE Jack Module
The 625FE jacks can be mounted in any standard outlet box by using a variety of Suttle brackets and faceplates. The 43A or 43B brackets may be used, and the 19A or 19E faceplates. The 625FE jacks can also be utilized in prewired installations by using a 63A junction box or a 60 ring with a 16A faceplate. Two mounting screws are included in packaging.

Line Cords
Corro-Shield 4 conductor line cords offer an unmatched level of protection against corrosion. GelGuard(tm) gel is placed at the area of greatest risk - the splice where the line cord and the plug wires are joined together. By injecting GelGuard gel into the plug, corrosion is prevented from traveling back up the cord. The cords are available in 7, 14 and 25 foot lengths. The cords are plug-ended at both ends and are available in two styles: The "WRC" designation has one filled plug; the "WRC1" designation has both plugs filled with GelGuard gel.
Category 5 Snap-In Jack Module
The 648C8A5 and 648C8B5 snap-in jack modules utilize a printed circuit board design with 110 IDC terminals. The modular jack contacts are protected with GelGuard gel. The units small size of less than one square inch allows greater density in plates and jack panels. Snap-in mounting reduces time and space required for installation. The 110 style IDC terminals are mounted on the back side of the housing allowing quick secure termination of 22-24 AWG station wire.
