Precision Pin and Socket Contacts
Type I, Crimp, Snap-In, Size 12
Precision screw-machined pin and socket, Size 12 con-
tacts, they are used in Special M Series and “G” Series
connectors, and are inserted into the same cavities as
Miniature Coaxial contacts. These contacts feature a high
normal force which provides a low resistance in signifi-
cant applications. Mating entry is closed-ended to pre-
vent damage from stubbing due to misalignment.
Beryllium copper springs are used to provide contact
normal force and are assisted by a stainless steel hood
which provides anti-overstress assurance. Single contact
current rating is 23 amperes at 30°C Temperature Rise.
See page 17 for product details.
.125 POWERBAND, Crimp, Snap-In
Specifically designed for AMP CPC Connectors (Series 5
and 6) and Metrimate .125 POWERBAND Drawer
Connectors, the new .125 POWERBAND contact offers
the performance of a MIL-Spec screw machine contact
with the economy of a stamped and formed, strip-feed
contact. Contacts are formed from copper with beryllium
copper springs. Single contact current rating is 50 amperes
at 30°C Temperature Rise.
See page 20 for product details.
Size 8, 4/8 Indent Crimp
Precision screw-machined pin and socket, Size 8 con-
tacts, they are used in Metrimate Drawer Connectors, and
other AMP product lines, which require high current carry-
ing capability in a small size. Pins are made from a solid
high conductivity copper alloy, and the sockets are
machined from solid beryllium copper, a material which
exhibits excellent spring properties. Industry standard
4/8 indent crimp offers higher reliability and ease of termi-
nation. Single contact current rating is 45 amperes at
30°C Temperature Rise.
See page 21 for product details.
Type XII, Crimp-Type
Precision formed male and female contacts used in CPC
Series 3 and 4, Special M Series and “G” Series connec-
tors, these contacts offer a low cost power option which
provides additional applied cost savings when terminated
with semiautomatic application equipment. The contact
body is made from 100% copper, which provides for
excellent conductivity. Spring characteristics are derived
from a captive stainless steel spring which assists the
dual cantilever spring members of the female contact.
Single contact current rating is 35 amperes at 30°C
Temperature Rise.
See page 23 for product details.
High Current Upgrades
Precision screw-machined pin and socket contacts have
increased current capability. All upgraded contacts use
the high amperage Louvertac contact band. The design
of this contact allows for increased current in the same
form factor. For example, Type II/Type III + upgraded
contacts increase the current from 13 amperes free air
to 23 amperes free air at a 30°C Temperature Rise.
See pages 18, 19, 22, and 24 for further details.
