Machined socket for Multimate II housings — 16-18 AWG, 30.0 µin gold
The gold thickness is 30.0 µin. Supplied in bulk, not tape-and-reel, so it is suited for bench or low-to-medium volume harness assembly where the operator feeds contacts manually into the crimp tool.
Using wire outside that gauge risks insufficient crimp height or barrel fracture. Termination is standard crimp, not solder or IDC, so the assembly requires a proper crimp tool with the correct die set for this contact family. The machined barrel gives a wide crimp- height tolerance, but the tool selection still governs pull-force consistency.
