Looking for a weatherproof 2-pin flat plug. The best description I can give is that it looks like the plug that was used on the older 80's vintage meyers snowplow lights. Flat & encased in plastic. Must have fairly heavy wiring for a decent sized fuel pump.
I want to us it to replace the alligator clips for powering my fuel cell/transfer pump in the back of my chassis & cab truck. I want to wire the plug back to the bed of my truck from the battery so I can just plug the fuel cell in back there not have to raise the truck hood everytime I want to fuel up a tractor.

Thanks for looking.

A plug setup for a boat trailer winch would probably work. Just search online for Powerwinch Male and female socket set.

I need something for 10 or 12 ga wire that's fairly weathertight. It's for a small fuel transfer pump with a 50 gal. tank like they sell at TSC.

Go to Napa and get what you need. Mine has them in drawers behind the counter. They have Weather Pack connectors at mine in sized that would easily handle a 10 ga wire. These are the type you make up yourself by soldering the wire to the pins then snapping them into the connector. Makes a real clean setup.

The other suggestion on a small winch plug would work but be 8 ga at the smallest.

A total red neck idea would be an old extension cord (totally weather proof and able to make a solid run front to back) and an outdoor electric box mounted near the pump. Outdoor box will have the spring loaded cover .just a thought

Anderson connector:
The smaller size would do the trick.
Most battery shops will carry as well as many auto parts,

The small Andersons are the way to go. Won't be waterproof but it won't matter, just apply some dielectric grease to stop corrosion.
I've got an assortment of 220volt plugs that I've built up over the years and also use them when in a bind. Some are 4 wire twistlock, others a flat twin blade. Even good (nylon)110 volt plugs will work, just make sure that you only use the ground and neutral connections, just in case someone tries to plug it into 110 volt.
I used a 110 volt plug on a winch controller for many years. It allowed me to add a 50' extension cord for remote pulls, then I got a wireless remote.....
