Terminal identity and wire range
The TE Connectivity 60789-2 is a post receptacle terminal — the female half that crimps onto a wire and mates with a male pin or tab in a corresponding housing. It accepts 20-24 AWG wire, which covers the common signal and low-power circuit sizes in harness assemblies. The crimp termination requires a standard open-barrel crimp tool; no solder or insulation displacement involved.
Packaging and line feed
Supplied in Bulk packaging — loose terminals, not tape-and-reel. That means it feeds into a semi-automatic crimp press with a bulk-feed bowl or a hand-tool station, not a high-speed reel-fed applicator. If your line expects reel packaging, factor in the changeover or verify the bowl feed setup before committing.
The 60789-2 is officially listed as Obsolete. No successor order code is recorded in the TE portfolio for this exact terminal.
