3.3. Crimped Contact Requirements
The contact shall be located in desired tooling and crimped according to the instructions packaged with that
tooling. See Section 5, TOOLING, of this document for details on tooling options and instructional materials.
Wire insulation shall NOT be cut or broken during the crimping operation, nor shall the insulation be crimped into the
contact wire barrel. Reasonable care should be taken by tooling operators to provide undamaged wire terminations.
Wire stripping tool jaws may leave corrugated indentations on the surface of the wire insulation. This is especially
severe with cross-linked polyethylene (high temperature) insulation. If these indentations occur at the location of the
wire seal, leakage may result. Insulation surface within 8.89 mm from the tip of the contact must be smooth and free of
indentations. See Figure 3.
A. Wire Barrel Crimp
The crimp applied to the wire portion of the contact is the most compressed area and is most critical in
ensuring optimum electrical and mechanical performance of the crimped contact. The contact wire barrel
crimp height must be within the dimension provided in Figure 2.
B. Effective Crimp Length
For optimum crimp effectiveness, the crimp must be within the area shown in Figure 3 and must meet the
crimp dimensions provided in Figure 2. Effective crimp length shall be defined as that portion of the wire
barrel, excluding bellmouth(s), fully formed by the crimping tool. Instructions for adjusting, repairing, and
inspecting tools are packaged with the tools. See Section 5, TOOLING.
C. Bellmouths
Front and rear bellmouths shall be evident and conform to the dimensions given in Figure 3.
D. Cutoff Tabs
The cutoff tab shall be cut to the dimensions shown in Figure 3.
E. Burrs
The cutoff burr shall not exceed the dimensions shown in Figure 3.
F. Wire Barrel Flash
The wire barrel flash shall not exceed the dimensions shown in Figure 3, Section X–X.

G. Insulation Barrel Crimp
The insulation barrel shall grip the insulation firmly without cutting into it. Care must be taken to prevent
cutting, nicking, or scraping of the insulation. Insulation crimp shall comply to width and height provided in
Figure 2.
H. Wire Location
The wire conductor and insulation must be visible in the transition area between the wire and insulation
barrels as shown in Figure 3.
I. Conductor Extension
The conductor may extend beyond the wire barrel to the maximum shown in Figure 3.
J. Wire Barrel Seam
The wire barrel seam must be closed with no evidence of loose wire strands visible in the seam as shown
in Figure 3.
K. Twist and Roll
There shall be no twist, roll, deformation or other damage to the mating portion of the crimped contact that
will impair usage of the contact. See Figure 4.
Figure 4
Wire Barrel
No Twist Permitted
L. Straightness/Alignment
The force applied during crimping may cause some bending between the crimped wire barrel and the
mating portion of the contact. The axial concentricity of the crimped wire barrel shall fall into an area
defined by a 4.19 mm [.165 in.] diameter circle whose center is the centerline of the contact. The axial
concentricity of the crimped insulation barrel shall fall into an area defined by a 5.59 mm [.220 in.]
diameter circle whose center is the centerline of the contact. Such deformation is acceptable within the
limits provided in Figure 5.
Periodic inspections must be made to ensure crimped contact formation is consistent as shown.

3.4. Housings
A connector assembly consists of a plug and a cap connector. A connector consists of a housing (plug or cap)
with a specified number of crimp contacts (pin and/or socket). Mating connectors may be a plug and a cap, or
a plug and a pc board header, so long as both have an identical number of circuits with a pin contact mating
with a socket contact. Both the plug and cap housings have individually numbered cavity identification on the
BACK (wire end), plus an identification rib on the SIDE indicating the No. 1 cavity. The housings feature
polarizing cavities on the mating end and are intermateable with Universal MATE–N–LOK II connectors. The
plug housing has two locking latches and the cap housing has two locking tabs. The housings are designed for
free hanging or panel mounting applications (refer to Paragraph 3.9, Panel Cutout).
A. Assembly
Crimped pin and socket contacts shall be manually inserted in either the plug or cap housing, or they may
be intermixed in each housing to provide multiple keying combinations. See Figure 6.
Insertion Tool 455830-1 (408-7984) is available for inserting contacts crimped to small wire sizes.
B. Disassembly
Extraction Tool 1804030–1 (408–10049) is designed for removing pin and socket contacts from plug and
cap housings. See Figure 6.

C. Strain Relief and Wire Dress
If necessary, wires can be bundled together and supported with cable ties or similar device. Wires must
not be stretched or confined in any way. Therefore, the wires must remain perpendicular to the connector
and avoid an excessively sharp bend radius. The minimum distance for the cable tie, measured from the
housing at the wire end of the connector to the cable tie is shown in Figure 7.
3.5. Headers
The pc board headers are supplied preloaded with solder tail pin contacts or solder tail socket contacts.
Vertical pin and socket headers are available in 2 through 15 circuits. Right–angle pin and socket headers are
available in 2 through 8 circuits. All headers feature individually numbered cavity identification on the FRONT
(mating end). The headers also feature polarizing cavities and locking tabs. The headers are designed to be
mounted on a pc board (refer to Paragraph 3.10.C, Printed Circuit Board Layout).

3.12. Soldering
A. Soldering Guidelines
Universal MATE–N–LOK Connector Headers can be soldered using wave or equivalent soldering
techniques. The temperatures and exposure time shall be within the ranges specified in Figure 15. We
recommend using SN60 or SN62 solder for these socket assemblies.

Figure 15
Manual 402-40 provides some guidelines for establishing soldering practices. Refer to Paragraph 2.6, Manuals.
B. Fluxing
The contact solder tines must be fluxed prior to soldering with a mildly active, rosin base flux. Selection of
the flux will depend on the type of pc board and other components mounted on the board. Additionally, the
flux must be compatible with the wave solder line, manufacturing, health, and safety requirements. Call the
Product Information number at the bottom of page 1 for consideration of other types of flux. Some fluxes
that are compatible with these sockets are provided in Figure 16.

Figure 16
C. Cleaning
After soldering, removal of fluxes, residues, and activators is necessary. Consult with the supplier of the
solder and flux for recommended cleaning solvents. The following is a listing of common cleaning solvents
that will not affect the sockets. The sockets will be unaffected by any of these solvents for 5 minutes at
room temperature.
Cleaners must be free of dissolved flux and other contaminants. We recommend cleaning with the pc
board on its edge. If using an aqueous cleaner, we recommend standard equipment such as a soak–tank
or an automatic in–line machine. See Figure 17.

Consideration must be given to toxicity and other safety requirements recommended by the solvent
manufacturer. Trichloroethylene and Methylene Chloride can be used with no harmful affect to the sockets; however,
Tyco Electronics Corporation does not recommend them because of the harmful occupational and environmental
effects. Both are carcinogenic (cancer-causing) and Trichloroethylene is harmful to the earth's ozone layer.
If you have a particular solvent that is not listed, contact the Product Information number at the bottom of page 1.
D. Drying
When drying clean assemblies and pc boards, air drying of is recommended. Temperature for the sockets
should not exceed 105
_
C [221
_
F] for a period of five minutes with no degradation to the connector
components. Degradation of the sockets could result from extreme temperatures.
E. Checking Installed Socket
All solder joints should conform to those specified in Test Specification 109–11.
3.13. Repair/Replacement
Damaged crimped contacts or housings must be removed, discarded, and replaced with new components. Use
an extraction tool to remove individual contacts from connectors for replacement or for relocation to another
housing cavity. Extraction Tool 318851–1 is used to extract contacts from the connectors.
If a damaged contact is evident before the contacts are inserted into the housing, cut the wire in back of the contact
and re-terminate the wire end. If the contact or housing is damaged after insertion, remove the contact with the
extraction tool and cut the wire in back of the contact and re-terminate wire end.
When removing connector headers from pc boards, reasonable care should be taken to remove the headers straight
and in-line in relation to the pc boards. In free-hanging applications, the wires must be supported during removal to
prevent excess strain on the contacts. Improper removal could result in damage to the wires, housing, contacts, or pc
board.
4. QUALIFICATIONS
The Universal MATE–N–LOK Connectors are Listed by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL) in File Number
E28476, Certified to CSA International in File LR7189, and designed and tested to meet VDE 3980/continuous
surveillance.
5. TOOLING
This section provides a selection of tools for various application requirements. Modified designs and additional
tooling concepts may be available to meet other application requirements. A list of tooling recommendations
and instructional material packaged with the tooling covering the full wire size range is provided in Figure 18.
Tool Engineers have designed machines for a variety of application requirements. For assistance in setting up
prototype and production line equipment, contact Tool Engineering through your local Tyco Electronics Representative
or call the Tooling Assistance Center number at the bottom of page 1.
S
Robotic Equipment
The robotic equipment must have a true position accuracy tolerance of 0.25 mm [.010 in.] to properly
locate the connectors for insertion. This includes gripper and fixture tolerances as well as equipment
repeatability.
S
Board Supports
A pc board support must be used to prevent bowing of the pc board during the placement of a connector
on the board. It should have flat surfaces with holes or a channel wide enough and deep enough to
receive the contact solder tails and boardlocks or other attaching hardware during installation of the
connector on the board.
