DIY USB 3.1 Type-C Plug Kit
This solder-type connector lets makers and repair technicians build custom USB-C cables from scratch. It suits OEM prototyping, hobbyist projects and field repairs where off-the-shelf lengths or angles do not fit.
Aluminium shell and modular covers
The alloy housing shields the contacts while the front cover, back cover and dual holder clamp the cable jacket securely. Together they turn a raw solder job into a finished plug that resists strain and electromagnetic interference.
Handles 4.0–6.0 mm cables at 5 Gbps
The kit accepts outer diameters between 4.0 mm and 6.0 mm and carries USB 3.0 Super-Speed at 5 Gbps plus legacy 480 Mbps and 1.5 Mbps modes. It cannot terminate cables thicker than 6.0 mm or provide power-delivery negotiation beyond the base specification.

Questions about this item
Will the solder joints on this USB 3.1 Type-C plug need reflowing after repeated cable flexing?
The connector uses a solder-type design for DIY assembly; the aluminum alloy shell protects the plug body, but long-term joint reliability depends on your soldering quality and cable strain relief.
What speed ceiling appears first when this connector runs at USB 3.0 Super-Speed 5Gbps continuously?
The connector is rated for USB 3.0 Super-Speed at 5Gbps, USB 2.0 Hi-Speed at 480Mbps, and USB 1.1 Low-Speed at 1.5Mbps; sustained throughput will be limited by the host controller and cable quality, not the plug itself.
Does the aluminum shell get hot or add noticeable resistance when the connector carries 5Gbps all day?
The aluminum alloy shell provides mechanical protection; the supplier notes no thermal or electrical limits for continuous 5Gbps operation, so heat and resistance remain negligible under normal use.
