Manufacturing process
Machined
Machined construction provides precise contact geometry, reducing contact resistance and improving current transfer in high-current power solutions used in industrial automation. This translates to longer service life with lower maintenance costs in control cabinets and machinery, especially where vibration and thermal cycling are common. The gold plating offers enhanced corrosion and wear resistance, delivering consistent performance in harsh environments and reducing contact failure rates in automated lines. Compatibility with Souriau 8291 housings ensures straightforward installation and reliable mating, minimizing rework during panel assembly and field servicing. The part supports wire sizes up to 20 AWG with a 12 AWG contact size, enabling compact, dense wiring schemes without compromising conductivity or crimp integrity. RoHS and REACH compliance further assure regulatory alignment for global deployments and supplier sustainability goals. Bulk packaging reduces procurement overhead for OEMs and integrators, accelerating project timelines and lowering total cost of ownership.
