It uses a poke-in termination — strip the wire, push it into the contact cavity, and the internal spring grabs the conductor without crimping. Typical use is low-cycle, tool-less field splicing or harness repair where a quick, reliable wire join is needed.
The current rating is 3A and 8A. The lower figure applies with the full 16-22 AWG range at elevated temperature.
Pricing is critical for budget and BOM costing, directly influences purchase decision.
Immediate availability affects production timelines and sourcing efficiency.
Design engineers need datasheet for fit, form, function validation before using in design.
Ensures correct pairing and system compatibility for cable/wire connections.
Maintenance techs need equivalent parts for fast replacement without redesign.
Critical for ensuring proper electrical connection and avoiding compatibility issues.
