Product Facts

I

Basic terminal is made of high

conductivity copper, electro

tin plated, for improved cor-

rosion resistance.

I

Applicable wire size is

marked on the tongue.

I

Inner serrations on the

wire barrel gives maximum

electrical contact and tensile

strength with the conductor.

I

Copper sleeve provides

circum-ferential insulation

support to the wire and

allows the wire to be bent

in any direction without

damaging the wire insulation

or conductors.

I

Insulation sleeves and

corresponding tooling are

color-coded by wire size for

easier identification.

I

AMP PIDG Terminals and

Splices meet the require-

ments of MIL-T-7928.

I

A variety of PIDG terminals

and splices are UL listed

File E 13288 and certified

by CSA File LR 7189.

Color Coding.

Color-coded by wire size.

Serrations.

Serrations inside barrel for maximum

contact and tensile strength.

Funnel Entry.

Conical entry for easy wire insertion.

Copper Sleeve.

Copper sleeve to

support wire insulation.

PIDG pre-insulated Diamond

Grip Terminals and Splices are

designed for complete and

uniform reliability. The pre-

insulated termination ensures

a vibration safe connection of

maximum conductivity, and its

tensile strength approaches

that of the wire itself.

Each PIDG terminal consists

of a tin plated copper body,

with a specially designed

copper sleeve and insulation

sleeve fitted over the terminal

barrel.

The carefully engineered

application tooling has been

designed for the PIDG pro-

gram to ensure high quality

terminations time after time.

Terminal and insulation sleeve

are crimped simultaneously

resulting in an excellent tensile

strength and vibration resist-

ance.

During crimping dot code is

applied to the insulation sleeve,

to confirm the use of the

correct tooling.

Nylon Insulation.

Nylon sleeve for high dielectric strength.

In order to obtain the best

termination results it is impor-

tant to select the correct tool.

Each terminal is matched to a

compatible tool. CERTI-CRIMP

hand tools are provided with

a patented ratched device to

ensure the crimp cycle is

completed before releasing.

There is a CERTI-CRIMP tool

available for each terminal

range.

Insulation Sleeve.

Expanded sleeve, accepts

wide range of wire insulation.
