About the M85049/69-13W Backshell
The M85049/69-13W is a straight shrink boot adapter backshell manufactured to the M85049/69 military specification sheet, part of the SAE AS85049 connector-accessory family. It installs on the rear accessory threads of MIL-DTL-38999 Series III and Series IV circular connectors and presents a grooved lip over which a heat-shrinkable boot is recovered, so the harness can be sealed and mechanically supported where it leaves the connector. Adapters in this family are machined from aluminium alloy with a rotatable coupling ring, allowing the accessory to be torqued without rotating the wire bundle. In this part number, ‘/69′ identifies the straight shrink boot adapter configuration, ’13’ is the shell size for a size-13 D38999 connector, and the ‘W’ code calls out an olive drab cadmium finish. It is normally installed together with a matching heat-shrink boot and adhesive as part of a qualified harness build.

Typical applications
This adapter family is used in aerospace, defence and UAV wiring harnesses to terminate heat-shrink boots at D38999 connectors, giving environmental sealing and strain relief at the cable transition. It is equally at home in MRO and harness-shop rework, where damaged boots and adapters are replaced during overhaul.
