They're ancient (1930s)
Not quite that old, but close. When I get home I might look up when
they were type approved by US Navy.
Given the
materials and technology of the time, their survival has been nothing
short of remarkable.
For fairly high power applications, they are an inexpensive option,
compared to the better connectors. They can take an amazing amount of
physical and electrical abuse.
