Gold-plated socket crimp contact delivers superior corrosion resistance and stable contact resistance in challenging environments, extending service life and reducing maintenance. This translates to lower total cost of ownership in critical power feeds and improved uptime for automation systems. The solution is designed for power applications up to AWG #8 core, with a 12 AWG contact size to ensure robust power transfer in dense harness assemblies. Its compact geometry—22.3 mm long, 3.8 mm wide, and 3.8 mm tall—facilitates high-density layouts, reducing panel footprint and wiring complexity. Machined manufacturing yields tight tolerances for repeatable crimps, which supports faster automation-ready assembly and consistent performance across thousands of cycles. Bulk packaging lowers handling time and unit cost in high-volume builds, while RoHS and REACH compliance simplifies cross-border qualification. Compatibility with Souriau 8291 family provides a proven ecosystem for scalable solutions. The 20 AWG min/max wire size range aligns with standard industrial harnesses, enabling straightforward integration into existing designs.
