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.

CAUTION

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.

NOTE

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 and legs of the insulation support crimp barrel may

deform or cut into the insulation, but must not penetrate into the conductor. This product has two styles of

insulation crimp. Most common is the F-crimp. For F-crimp style, the legs of the insulation barrel touch

each other, and the crimp shall comply to width provided in Figure 2. For special cases, the overlap crimp

or O-crimp is used. The overlap allows the legs of the insulation barrel overlap itself by at least the length

of one material thickness. The O-crimp allows the legs of the insulation barrel to touch as shown. See

Figure 4.

The smallest cable within the insulation range may have a gap between the insulation and the insulation

barrel leg (max. of the difference of the diameter between the smallest and largest cable), however, must

touch the insulation support barrel for at least a distance equal to half its circumference. See Figure 4.

Figure 4

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 5.

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 6.

Figure 6

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. After inserting the terminal into the

back of the housing, pull back lightly on the wire of the contact to make sure that the contact is locked in

place. See Figure 7.

NOTE

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 7.

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 8.

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).

Figure 8

3.6. Strain Relief Assembly

The strain relief assembly is designed to relieve the stress of the wires on the contacts. There are two strain

relief versions (open and enclosed). The open version is available for 2 through 15 circuit plug housings. The

enclosed version is available for 2 through 15 circuit plug or cap housings. The enclosed version features an

attached insert for smaller wire bundles. Adapters are required when installing an enclosed strain relief

assembly onto a cap housing. Two identical strain reliefs are inserted into slots in the back of the connector (or

adapter) and are secured together with two No. 6 pan head self-tapping screws. See Figure 9.

NOTE

Test connectors have a 5 ampere maximum current rating per circuit.

3.9. Optional TPA Devices

An optional TPA device is available for the plug housing and cap housing. Refer to 408-143140 for installation

requirements and instructions.

The TPA device must be installed onto the wire end of the housing so that the latches are secure as described

in 408-143140. If not fully latched, this indicates that one or more contacts has not been fully inserted.

3.10. Panel Cutout

Cap connector panel mounting cutouts shall be as indicated in Figure 12. (No mounting hardware is required.)

The cap housing features flexible mounting latches for insertion into the panel. Push the cap connector through

the panel - in the same direction as the cutout was made - until it snaps in place.

NOTE

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 17.

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 18.

DANGER

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 effect to the sockets; however, TE 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.

NOTE

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.

3.14. 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.

CAUTION

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.

CAUTION

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.
