Fassmer Lifeboat Safety Boosted by JOWO 8819 Marine Connectors

IKT USA introduces a new standard in corrosion-resistant, field-serviceable connectors for lifeboat operations

Houston, TX – Sept. 3 2025 – IKT USA has launched the JOWO 8819 series connectors in the U.S. market, providing a major upgrade for Fassmer lifeboat electrical systems. Unlike epoxy-sealed alternatives, these connectors offer field serviceability, long-term corrosion resistance, and robust vibration tolerance, ensuring maximum readiness in emergencies.

The Florida Voyager retrofit demonstrated significant reliability gains by replacing standard circular connectors with JOWO 8819 units.

“Connector choice can determine whether lifeboats deploy safely,” said Oscar Voigt of IKT USA. “The JOWO 8819 makes maintenance simpler and failures far less likely.”
