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.
Nylon Insulation.
Nylon sleeve for high dielectric strength.
Color Coding.
Color-coded by wire size.
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.
Insulation Sleeve.
Expanded sleeve, accepts
wide range of wire insulation.
Serrations.
Serrations inside barrel for maximum
contact and tensile strength.
Copper Sleeve.
Copper sleeve to
support wire insulation.
Funnel Entry.
Conical entry for easy wire insertion.
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.
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.
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.
During crimping dot code is
applied to the insulation sleeve,
to confirm the use of the
correct tooling.
