Strain Relief Terminal for Crimp Assembly
The TE Connectivity 42412-5 is a strain relief terminal designed for crimp termination into a connector housing. It is part of the 42412 base product family and serves the single function of managing cable strain at the termination point — preventing pull forces from reaching the crimped electrical connection. Crimp termination means the terminal is mechanically compressed onto the stripped wire end using a dedicated crimp tool, producing a gas-tight connection that resists vibration and corrosion. The strain relief feature absorbs flex and tug on the cable jacket so the crimp barrel itself is not loaded. Packaged in Tape & Reel (TR) for automated placement or Cut Tape (CT) for low-volume hand assembly. ROHS3 Compliant per, making it suitable for equipment sold into EU and other regulated markets.
