If you're building a harness that will see field service or test-bench reconnections, the gold thickness here saves you from fretting corrosion down the line. ## Wire Sizing and Crimp Fit This contact accepts 20-24 AWG stranded wire — the sweet spot for signal-level D-sub wiring in control cabinets, serial data links, and instrumentation harnesses. The stamped barrel crimps onto the stripped conductor and the insulation support crimps onto the jacket. You'll need a proper HDP-20 crimp tool frame and die set (TE part number 539075-1 or equivalent) to get the crimp height right; a generic ratchet crimper won't hold the contact alignment. The brass body with gold flash gives good conductivity without the cost of a machined contact — fine for signal circuits where you're not pushing more than a few amps per pin. ## Housing Compatibility and Mating The 205202-2 loads into any standard AMPLIMITE HDP-20 housing — the 9, 15, 25, 37, and 50-position plug and receptacle shells. The stamped pin has the same retention lance geometry as the machined version, so it locks into the same cavity positions.","metaTitle":"TE Connectivity 205202-2 AMPLIMITE HDP-20 Crimp Pin Contact","metaDescription":"TE Connectivity 205202-2 stamped pin contact for AMPLIMITE HDP-20 D-sub housings. 20-24 AWG, 30.0µin gold plating, crimp termination.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Circular Connectors","Multi-Purpose Circular"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors","Type":"Stamped","Series":"AMPLIMITE HDP-20","Package":"Tape & Reel (TR) Cut Tape (CT)","Wire Gauge":"20-24 AWG","Pin or Socket":"Pin","Contact Finish":"Gold","Product Status":"Active","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Contact Material":"Brass","Base Product Number":"205202","Contact Termination":"Crimp","Contact Finish Thickness":"30.0µin (0.76µm)"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$0.2800","priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/4eb73febd657c305a84af7dfc6192757.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/205202-2/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Where can I buy the 205202-2 crimp pin contact and how is it quoted?","answer":"The 205202-2 is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution.
