Description
🔌Plug and play
🔧Cat, Terex and ASV 8 pin
🎛FFC attachments
📘 Overview
The SG-CT8-FFC runs FFC-style attachments on a Caterpillar, ASV or Terex machine with the 8-pin connector. The 8-pin end plugs into the loader, the Delphi Metripak end plugs into the attachment. No wiring, no splicing.
⚙ Key Features of the SG-CT8-FFC Adapter
- Plug and play — no wiring or splicing at either end
- Deutsch HD 8-pin machine side — Caterpillar ABC series, Terex and ASV
- Delphi Metripak 8-pin attachment side — the FFC-style connector
- Keeps both ends standard — the attachment still fits its original machine
🔑 Why an Adapter Rather Than Rewiring
- Runs FFC attachments unmodified — nothing cut, nothing spliced
- Reversible — unplug it and the attachment returns to standard
- Suits the pre-2014 Caterpillar fleet — machines still working hard with the older 8-pin interface

🚜 Which Machines Fit the SG-CT8-FFC?
Machines with the 8-pin attachment connector — Caterpillar A, B and C series built before 2014, all Terex, and ASV machines fitted with 8-pin.
ASV connections vary considerably and should be checked carefully before ordering; Terex generally follows the ASV layout. Caterpillar D-Series and Next Gen machines use the 14-pin connector instead and need a different adapter.

❓ FFC Adapter Questions, Answered
Which machines have the 8 pin connector?
Caterpillar A, B and C series built before 2014, all Terex machines, and ASV machines fitted with 8-pin. Caterpillar D-Series and Next Gen moved to 14-pin.
What is an FFC attachment connector?
FFC-style attachments terminate in a Delphi Metripak 8-pin connector rather than the connector used on the machine side. The adapter bridges the two so the attachment plugs straight in.
My machine is a Cat D-Series — will this work?
No. D-Series and Next Gen machines use the 14-pin connector, so a 14-pin to FFC adapter is the correct part instead.
I have an ASV machine — will it definitely fit?
ASV connections vary more than most brands, so check yours against the 8-pin arrangement before ordering rather than assuming. Terex generally follows the ASV layout.
Do I need to cut or splice anything?
No. The SG-CT8-FFC is plug and play at both ends.
How do I tell which connector I actually have?
Count the positions, including the empty ones — not the terminals that happen to be fitted. A connector showing seven sockets is very often a 14-position housing with seven installed, which is a different part entirely.
📊 Technical Information
Before you order — a caveat about factory controls. Both ends of this product are built to factory pin specifications using original factory parts. What cannot be guaranteed is that your machine was ordered with all the factory controls fitted, or that your attachment is pinned to match. This is especially common with auction attachments and second-hand purchases. Tools and instructions for moving pins are included so everything can be brought into alignment.
