3M 7100018196 Ptt Adapter Kenwood Peltor Mt Series

Product Description

The 3M 7100018196 is an in-line Push-to-Talk (PTT) adapter designed for use with Peltor MT Series headsets and compatible 2-way radio communication systems. The adapter connects in-line between the headset and the radio, allowing the user to key the transmitter without handling the radio directly. It features a waterproof construction, a 360-degree rotating belt clip assembly for flexible positioning, and an easy-to-activate palm button for reliable keying in field conditions. This part is suited for communication-intensive environments where hands-free convenience and durable hardware are required.

The 7100018196 PTT adapter is intended for use in 2-way radio communication setups pairing a Kenwood TK380 radio with Peltor MT Series headsets. Typical install scenarios include public safety, industrial, and construction environments where clear radio communication and hearing protection must work together. The in-line design keeps the radio secured to the belt while the headset stays on the user throughout the work shift.
