3. REQUIREMENTS
3.1. Safety
Do not stack product shipping containers so high that the containers buckle or deform.
3.2. Storage
A. Ultraviolet Light
Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet light may deteriorate the chemical composition used in the product
material.
B. Shelf Life
The product should remain in the shipping containers until ready for use to prevent deformation to
components. The product should be used on a first in, first out basis to avoid storage contamination that
could adversely affect performance.
C. Reels
When using reeled contacts, store coil wound reels horizontally. When storing partial reeled contacts, the
end of the strip should be secured to the flange using a wire tie or similar method.
D. Chemical Exposure
Do not store product near any chemical listed below as they may cause stress corrosion cracking in the
material.
Alkalies Ammonia Citrates Phosphates Citrates Sulfur Compounds
Amines Carbonates Nitrites Sulfur Nitrites Tartrates
3.3. Wire Selection and Preparation
The contacts accept stranded wire sizes 24-30 AWG [0.205 –0.0507 mm2] with an insulation diameter range
given in Figure 3. The wire must be stripped to the dimension given in Figure 3.

3.4. Crimp Requirements
Contacts must be terminated according to the instructions packaged with the tooling.
A. Bellmouth
The rear bellmouth shall be evident and be within the dimensions given in Figure 4.
B. Cutoff Tab and Burr
The cutoff tab is the remaining portion of the carrier strip after the contact is cut from the strip. The cutoff tab
and burr shall not exceed the dimension given in Figure 4.
C. Wire Barrel Flash
Wire barrel flash is the formation that may appear on both sides of the wire barrel as the result of the crimping
process. The wire barrel flash shall not exceed the dimension given in Figure 4.
D. Wire Barrel Crimp
The crimp applied to the wire barrel portion of the contact is the most compressed area and is most critical in
ensuring optimum electrical and mechanical performance of the crimped contact. The crimp must be centered
on the closed wire barrel. The crimp must result in an “F” crimp where the wire barrel forms a closed seam with
no evidence of loose wire strands or wire strands visible in the seam. The crimp height and width must be
within the dimensions given in Figure 4.
E. Insulation Barrel Crimp
The crimp applied to the insulation barrel of the contact must result in an “F” crimp. The crimp height and width
must be within the dimensions provided in Figure 4. Slight scratch is acceptable on insulation crimp.
F. Effective Crimp Length
Effective crimp length shall be defined as that portion of the wire barrel, excluding the rear bellmouth, fully
formed by the crimping tool. Refer to Figure 4.
Strip Length (See Table)

114-106497
Rev 5

G. Wire Location
All conductors must be held firmly inside the wire barrel. No strands can be folded back over the wire
insulation. The wire insulation must be inside the insulation barrel but must not enter the wire barrel. The wire
insulation and conductors must be visible in the transition area between the wire barrel and insulation barrel.
See Figure 4.
H. Wire Brush
The conductors may extend beyond the wire barrel within the dimensions given in Figure 4.
I. Wire Barrel Seam
The wire barrel seam must be closed with no evidence of loose wire strands visible in the seam.
K. Twist and Roll
There should be no twist or roll of the wire barrel or mating portion of the crimped contact that would cause
overstress or impair usage. See Figure 4 for allowable limits.
NOTE
The effective crimp length depends on the crimping dies used and should not be measured for inspection purposes.

L. Straightness
The force applied during crimping may cause some bending between the crimped wire barrel and the mating
portion of the contact. Such deformation is acceptable within the following limits:
The side-to-side bending of the contact may not exceed the limits provided in Figure 5.
The crimped contact, including cutoff tab and burr, shall not be bent above or below the datum line more than
the amount given in Figure 5.
