I’m actually surprised the industry never standardized on the connectors used in Forklifts. They’re basically a large-current variant
of Anderson Power Pole style connectors, but they come in a fixed two-conductor format. They are genderless connectors with
excellent durability and very easy assembly.
This is an example of the 175A rated version:

They come in sizes from 120A to 350A.
