That link is NOT the right connector.

They are 50A SB-series red connectors. The red connector on that link is an SB175, and the blue SB50 will NOT mate with a red SB50. Each color is keyed differentally for the SB series, but the powerpoles are not. As others have stated they are indeed the 50A connectors, and are SB series, not powerpoles.

The 75A PowerPole contacts are the same as the SB50 50A contacts. Tells you something about the current rating...

You can get the contacts from McMaster (the 75A powerpole ones), but if you need the entire connector aseembly you are best off with terminalsupply co, powerwerx, etc.
