This contact carries a tin finish with a thickness of 50.0µin (1.27µm), making it a cost-effective choice for moderate-duty interconnect applications where high mating-cycle counts are not required. It is used within Multimate III+ connector housings and headers, typically in power and signal circuits for industrial control, automotive, and commercial equipment harnesses.
The 14-18 AWG wire range is the primary selection gate — this contact accepts stranded wire within that gauge band. The tin finish at 50.0µin (1.27µm) provides adequate corrosion resistance for indoor and protected environments but is not rated for high-vibration or repeated mate/unmate cycles where gold plating would be specified.
