A load limited connector that is calibrated to fail at a predetermined approximate tensile load. The connector includes a main body, within which a pin chamber is received, and a secondary body having a shaft that is releasably secured within the pin chamber. At least one breakaway pin, positioned in a pin passageway passing through the pin chamber and into the main body, secures the pin chamber within the main body. When the connector is subjected to tensile loading that exceeds the yielding point of the breakaway pin, failure of the pin occurs resulting in separation of the main body from the secondary body. A pair of torsion pins extend through the pin chamber into the main body to prevent rotation of the pin chamber relative to the main body.
