Contact Metallurgy & Plating Guide​

  • Gold Plating (Au): Unmatched resistance to atmospheric oxidation, fretting corrosion, and micro-motion degradation. Imperative for millivolt sensor circuits (knock sensors, Hall-effect crank triggers, wideband lambda) and differential CAN-Bus / LIN communications.
  • Nickel Plating (Ni): High mechanical durability and excellent resistance to contact wear during frequent mating cycles. Standard for chassis switching, solenoids, and automotive accessories.
  • Tin Plating (Sn): Suitable for cost-sensitive, steady-state DC power delivery (coils, electric fans, lighting), provided high contact normal force is maintained to avoid fretting.
  • Solid (Machined) vs. Stamped & Formed (S&F):
    • Solid Machined Terminals: Preferred in motorsport and aerospace for exceptional tensile pull strength under heavy vibration. Crimped using 4-indent / 8-indent hand crimp tools (e.g. HDT-48-00).
    • Stamped & Formed Terminals: Ideal for production harness assembly and automated reel feeding using standard B-crimp tooling.

Cavity Wire Seals & Insulation Matching​

Waterproofing depends on maintaining a uniform seal around the wire insulation:

Seal Part NumberWire Insulation OD RangeMaterial CompositionIngress Protection Rating
828904-11.2mm - 2.1mmHigh-Grade Silicone / FluorosiliconeIP67 / IP68 Submersion
828905-12.2mm - 3.0mmHigh-Grade Silicone / FluorosiliconeIP67 / IP68 Submersion

Engineering Tip: When using thin-wall high-performance motorsport wire such as Raychem Spec 55 (MIL-W-22759/32) or TXL, verify that the wire outer diameter falls strictly within the seal's minimum specification to avoid capillary water ingress.


Cavity Sealing Plugs (Blind Plugs)​

Any unpopulated terminal cavities must be sealed to maintain submersible IP67/IP68 environmental protection:

Cavity Plug Part NumberFunctionMaterialInstallation Tip
828922-1Unpopulated Cavity SealThermoplastic / SiliconeInsert with tapered end forward until flush
  • Always install sealing plugs with the flared flange oriented outward towards the wire entry face.
  • Push the plug until it rests flush against the rear grommet shoulder.

Harness Assembly & Crimping Best Practices​

  1. Wire Stripping: Strip wire insulation cleanly (recommended 5.0mm – 6.5mm) without nicking or severing individual copper strands.
  2. Crimp Height Verification: Verify crimp height and terminal pull-out force using a certified calibrated crimper and micrometer.
  3. Terminal Insertion: Push contacts through the rear elastomeric grommet until an audible tactile click indicates positive retention.
  4. Secondary Lock Installation: Slide the wedgelock into the front face until it locks flush with the connector housing.
  5. Service & De-pinning: If de-pinning is required, remove the wedgelock with a hooked removal tool, then gently release the internal plastic retaining finger with a small flat blade screwdriver while pulling the wire from the rear.
