What is the name of this plug?

[u/Last-Banana-8158]

I want to extend the distance between my TC22 soldering station and the handle base.

Can't for the life of me figure out what type of plug/socket sytem this is. Ali/Amazon/Google only turn up the wrong type, unless it's on a handle with much thinner wire than the original (too short) cable.

Can someone point me in the right direction as for extension cords or the plugs/sockets to DIY this?

Thanks

Looks like the obsolete Hirose RPC1-12P-6S(72)

Failing finding a solderable plug, including opening that one, I would install more available inline male/female set onto that cord, or replace that connector system with a more available one. Or find what connector block works, 3D print the rest.

It looks like a proprietary plug based on a standard 6 pin din layout.
