The tin-plated brass construction suits internal harness applications where the mated assembly sees limited disconnect cycles — tin is the cost-optimized choice for a single-mate or occasional-service connection. As a socket contact, it mates with the corresponding pin terminal in the same series, housed in the Mini-Universal MATE-N-LOK plug or receptacle housings.
Wire gauge and crimp requirements
The crimp barrel accepts 22-26 AWG stranded or solid wire. The stamped construction means the crimp wings fold around the conductor and insulation in a standard open-barrel crimp — the same tooling used across the Mini-Universal MATE-N-LOK terminal family. For consistent pull-force and contact resistance, use the manufacturer-recommended crimp die set for this wire range.
