Product details

11-13 AWG stamped socket for MCP series

The 1-968853-1: Crimp termination suits high-current power and signal circuits in automotive and industrial harness builds where the wire gauge matches the terminal barrel.

Wire gauge and plating across the MCP socket line

The 1-968853-1 shares the 39.4µin tin plating and crimp termination with the 1-968859-1, which also accepts 11-13 AWG — the two are functionally identical for the same wire range. For lighter 17-20 AWG circuits the 1-968849-1 uses the same tin plating and crimp style, while the 1-968853-3 switches to a thicker 118.1µin (3.00µm) silver finish for higher-current or higher-temperature duty.

Frequently asked questions

What wire gauge does the 1-968853-1 accept?

The 1-968853-1 accepts 11-13 AWG wire.

Does the 1-968853-1 drop in for the 1-968859-1?

Yes — both are MCP stamped sockets with the same 11-13 AWG wire range, tin plating, and 39.4µin thickness. They are functionally interchangeable for the same wire gauge.
