Multi-Lock crimp socket for 20-22 AWG wire
The 173716-1 is a tin-plated socket contact in TE's Multi-Lock series, accepting 20-22 AWG wire with a crimp termination — the terminal locks into the housing with an audible click when fully seated.
Positioning within the Multi-Lock family
The 173716-1 handles 20-22 AWG wire, while the 929989-8 sibling takes 17-20 AWG and the 1-1326032-0 takes 16 AWG with a 31.5 µin tin finish — match the wire gauge to the contact for proper crimp retention and current capacity. The 1326031-9 is a blade contact in the same series, not a socket — the 173716-1 mates with the corresponding Multi-Lock blade terminal.
