Feature → Business Impact → Application: The machined construction and silver plating deliver low contact resistance and superior corrosion resistance, reducing maintenance needs and improving uptime in demanding environments such as automated production lines. This translates to measurable life-cycle cost savings and more predictable performance in power distribution applications. The socket (female) design provides a robust mating interface with Souriau 8291 series housings, enabling quick field assembly and consistent crimp quality for automotive and industrial control panels. Compatibility with 16 AWG wire ranges ensures flexible harness design, while bulk packaging lowers per-unit procurement costs and streamlines stocking for original equipment manufacturers. The RoHS and REACH compliance adds regulatory assurance, supporting audit-ready supply chains and sustainable manufacturing practices. Installation is facilitated by the machined process, delivering repeatable crimp geometry for high-volume builds and reduced rework in critical power circuits.

FAQs
The 82911462A is a female crimp socket contact designed for the Souriau 8291 power series. It is compatible with 12 AWG contact size and accepts wire in the 16 AWG range, with machined construction and silver plating for reliable crimp performance in bulk-packaged form. This makes it suitable for compact, high-current power harnesses in automation gear and control panels.
Reliability comes from a machined, silver-plated contact surface that delivers low resistance and excellent corrosion resistance. The design supports secure crimp connections in bulk-packaged parts, with precise dimensions (22.3 mm length, 3.8 mm width/height) that promote consistent mating and reduced contact fatigue in demanding environments like industrial automation.
Ideal for industrial automation, control panels, and power distribution harnesses where compact form factor and robust power connections are essential. The 8291 series compatibility, along with 16 AWG wiring support and high-quality machined internals, makes it suitable for motor drives, PLC cabinets, and electrical distribution nodes in manufacturing facilities.
The 82911462A is compliant with REACH and RoHS, providing regulatory assurance for European and global supply chains. These certifications help simplify compliance audits and support sustainable manufacturing practices in automation projects.
Use proper crimp tooling to ensure repeatable crimps and inspect the mating interface for consistent engagement. Bulk packaging reduces on-hand procurement costs, while the silver-plated contact resists corrosion, extending service intervals. The machined process ensures stable geometry, lowering rework in high-volume builds and contributing to lower total cost of ownership in power distribution applications.
