WW2 German Luftwaffe Anschlußdose – OXYGEN MASK CONNECTOR – Me109 Fw190 – NICE!

You are bidding on a VERY RARE and 100% ORIGINAL WW2 German Luftwaffe Anschlußdose für Sauerstoffmaske (Oxygen Mask Main Connector)! This connected the mainhose directly to the oxygen mask, and was used in most fighters and bombers such as the Me109, Fw190, Me262, Ju87, Ju88, He162, Me163 and others!

The Luftwaffe oxygen system was a critical component for high-altitude operations, supplying breathable oxygen to pilots and crew through a regulated system connected directly to their flight masks. The Anschlussdose (connection socket) served as the primary interface point between the aircraft’s oxygen supply hose and the crew member’s mask, allowing for quick and secure attachment during flight. These fittings were used across a wide range of German aircraft including fighters, bombers, and jet aircraft such as the Me109, Fw190, Me262, Ju87, Ju88, and others, making them a standard and essential piece of cockpit equipment.

Made of bakelite and aluminum, this connection is in EXCELLENT unused ccondition! The bakelite body is completely intact, with NO cracks, chips, or damage! The aluminum cap and door assembly functions exactly as intended, opening and closing correctly with proper spring tension. These were not designed to snap shut, but rather to cover the opening when not in use to prevent debris from entering the oxygen system. The piece is 100% COMPLETE with NO missing parts and remains structurally sound throughout. The connector retains the original maker marking “bwz,”, for “Auer-Gesellschaft AG, Werk Oranienburg“. There is only light surface wear consistent with age and storage, with no damage affecting functionality. This fitting was designed to be inserted directly into the oxygen hose and served as the PRIMARY CONNECTION POINT for the pilot’s oxygen mask. I have shown its location in the last image. A VERY NICE and increasingly hard-to-find original Luftwaffe oxygen system component, perfect for any aviation or cockpit equipment collection!
