The 179973-1 is a female quick-disconnect receptacle in TE's Positive Lock EX-II series, accepting 0.250" (6.35mm) male tabs with a 0.032" (0.81mm) thickness and 18-22 AWG wire. The tin-plated brass contact is crimp-terminated and hangs free in-line — no insulation support, so the wire jacket must be stripped to the correct length for the crimp barrel.
