TE Connectivity Pre-Insulated Diamond Grip (PIDG) Terminals and Splices are designed for complete and uniform reliability in the most difficult circuit environments. These terminals and splices are made with a nylon or PVC-insulated copper body, with a copper sleeve that crimps to the wire insulation for added support. The terminals are vibration-resistant and allow the wire to bend in any direction without damaging the wire insulation or conductor. The terminals and crimps have a design that allows for uniform insulation thickness under crimping pressure, transmitting the pressure evenly to the center of the crimp area. This produces a crimp for a given wire and terminal that are alike in appearance and performance. The tensile strength approaches that of the wire itself. PIDG terminals are available as rings, spades, flanged spaded, slotted rings, splices, and several other varieties.
TE Connectivity Pre-Insulated Diamond Grip Terminals and Splices
Features
- Copper sleeve between insulation and terminal body provides excellent wire support after crimping
- Funneled wire entry on terminal prevents turned-back wire strands and permits rapid wire insertion during high-speed production
