RS PRO Insulated Double Crimp Receptacles
From RS PRO a high-quality insulated crimp receptacle terminal sometimes known as a female quick disconnect. Female crimp receptacles are a type of electrical wiring connector which, when mated with a male tab connector (or male quick disconnect), provide a fast and reliable interconnect between two wires. The body of the connector is made from tin plated brass and features an additional internal copper sleeve. This copper sleeve strengthens the barrel and provides a robust and secure crimp. The sleeve also protects the wire against stress and high vibration. The receptacle also has a plastic insulation which provides protection against electric shock and offers protection from dirt, grease, liquids and other contaminants. The colour of the insulation matches the wire size that the connector is used with making identification quick and easy.
How Does a Female Crimp Connector Work?
The female connector or receptacle is crimped onto the end of the stranded electrical wire using the appropriate tooling, no solder is required. The male tab or blade connector on the opposing wire simply slots into the opening on the end of the receptacle to form a secure and reliable electrical connection.
