Eaton SC24ML1D70 Crimp Contact - RoHS Compliant Gold Plated

Part Number: SC24ML1D70
Manufacturer
Eaton
Part number
SC24ML1D70

Quick Summary

SC24ML1D70 is a crimp contact designed for female Socket connections within the Eaton Souriau SC/SM interconnect family. It enables reliable, high-integrity terminations for industrial harnesses and control panels. Engineers often struggle with intermittent connections caused by mismatched contacts or plating wear, especially in demanding environments. This part uses selective gold plating on the active contact face with nickel on the rear to improve conductivity and corrosion resistance over time. It is RoHS and REACH compliant, supporting sustainability and regulatory requirements. The bulk packaging streamlines high-volume assembly, reducing handling time and scrap. When paired with compatible crimp tools and cables, it delivers consistent electrical performance and fast field servicing.

Compatibility with the Souriau SC/SM series ensures a secure fit across established interconnects, reducing the risk of mis-mates and rework in panel assemblies. In practice, this means faster harness assembly and fewer urgent field replacements. This compatibility also supports standardized spares pools and easier supplier management for subcontractors. Gold on the active contact face and nickel on the rear face deliver durable, low-resistance conduction and improved corrosion resistance in harsh environments. This combination supports long service life in automation cabinets, control panels, and mobile equipment. The plating takes repeated crimp cycles without significant degradation, preserving signal integrity across service intervals. Crimp specification supports wire sizes from 26 AWG to 24 AWG, enabling flexible harness design without oversizing crimp tails. Bulk packaging accelerates high-volume assembly lines by reducing handling steps and enabling straightforward kitting. For installers, the lack of lead or solder simplifies compliance with clean-room or assembly-line standards. At 19 mm long with a compact 3.3 x 3.1 mm cross-section and 0.3 g weight, these contacts fit tight SC/SM cavities while preserving electrical performance. Precise stamping and formed geometry minimize insertion force and ensure consistent seating across batches. The symmetric design also simplifies orientation during automated crimping. Stamped and formed manufacturing delivers repeatable geometry and supply reliability, while RoHS and REACH compliance ensures sustainability and regulatory alignment for industrial deployments. The active-part gold plating reduces contact resistance over time, contributing to lower maintenance costs in high-cycle applications. Our field data indicate measurable improvements in assembly throughput when using correctly matched contacts with compatible tooling. Overall, SC24ML1D70 offers a proven balance of mechanical compatibility, electrical performance, and regulatory compliance for engineers sourcing high-volume, mixed-connector assemblies in automotive, industrial automation, and control infrastructure.
