Crimp Socket for Multimate III+ Housings
Typical use is in power and signal interconnect assemblies where the Multimate III+ contact system provides a field-replaceable, high-retention crimp joint.
The 16-18 AWG wire range covers the most common power and signal leads in harness work. The gold plating thickness — 31.5µin (0.80µm) — is well above the 15µin flash typically used for low-cycle signal contacts; this socket is specced for applications where the contact sees multiple mate-unmate cycles in the field, such as in modular power distribution or test equipment. The stamped construction keeps the per-unit cost lower than a machined contact while still meeting the retention and conductivity requirements of the Multimate III+ system.
