Mud, moisture, dust, vibrations or high pressure and extreme fluctuations in temperature – e-bikes are exposed to extreme conditions. All the electronic connections fitted in these bikes have to be able to cope with these challenges. Such sensitive components require maximum protections. Let’s not deceive ourselves: the more electronics in a modern e-bike, the greater or more diverse the bike’s vulnerability. Which grows more and more with every innovation.
WERNER WIRTH knows how to deal with all these requirements: with individually customised and modular e-bike connectors. For decades we have been taking care of functioning, permanently protected connections in every scale. We are also perfectly at home in the e-bike sector thanks to excellent long-standing cooperation with leading manufacturers on the electric motor market. We develop and produce customised solutions that sometimes go around the corner in order to make connectors in e-bikes suitable for highly individual specifications in the most confined space, while ensuring they comply with the requirements of the certification agencies. Furthermore, we also offer our proprietary modular e-bike connector system.
No matter whether you want to launch a completely new model or upgrade existing e-bikes with additional components, we are gladly at your side right from the start with our knowledge and experience to fulfil and facilitate challenging demands made of the new e-bike system. We keep pace with you and join you on the fast lane in the e-mobility sector that is pursuing innovation at ever higher speed.
After all, one thing is clear in a market that’s developing so quickly: connectors shrink in size all the time or have to offer more pins. Innovative products in many sectors are constantly getting smaller and connectors increasingly have to fit perfectly in the limited space available. Or go uniquely around the corner. We can gladly support you from the very early concept phase of the new e-bike or innovative components. Do you need assistance with the initial design or with feasibility analyses? Please use our contact form so we can start working together!
There’s no need to reinvent the wheel for every e-bike. The same also often applies to e-bike connectors. That’s why we put our nearly 60 years of experience and all our concentrated know-how into developing comprehensive, modular connector solutions for the e-bike sector. This has resulted in a connector system that fulfils all specific electronic requirements in exemplary fashion, covering all demands, from 2- to 5-pin micro connector, for example for lamp control, HMIs, antennas, fans or other sensors and actuators.
Or from the power data interface to the system connector, taking care of countless data connections as well as providing power between battery and motor. Our modular connector system offers a wide range of possible choices, constantly improved through the years by the requirements made by our customers and now available for you.
For you, this means custom-fit plug & play solutions that we adapt to all your individual needs on request.
Our power data connectors are the indispensable interface for power and data communication between motor and battery. They are available in angled and straight design and can be used as wire-to-wire (female/male) extension solution. Their design is so compact that we can provide the right connection for nearly any place. Other special aspects: IP67 impermeability rating, high power load.

Would you like a personal opportunity to get to know and test WERNER WIRTH’s comprehensive range of modular connectors? Or do you have a more complex problem where you need us to develop a solution? Make an appointment to meet us in person.
During a non-committal initial meeting, you can explain your specific requirements and we can work together to find out which connector fits in best. We can also show you which specific adjustments we could make for you. Or how the perfectly fitting system connector could be embedded in the final available angled gap in your drive unit. Which date would suit you best?
Do you have any questions about E-Bike connectors, or would you like to exchange ideas with us without any obligation? We are also your contact if you are planning a comprehensive project. Let’s discuss your E-Bike connector inquiry. We provide solutions, concepts, as well as development and production all in one.
Feel free to get in touch with us. We look forward to engaging in a conversation with you.
