FAQs
SM16M11D70REV is a stamped and formed male crimp contact designed for Souriau SC/SM series connectors. It supports size #16 and #20 pins and is built for 28 mm long assemblies with a 3.2 mm diameter profile. It works with standard 16–18 AWG wiring and requires compatible crimp tools and housings for proper mating.
The contact supports 16–18 AWG wires, with 16 AWG as the maximum and 18 AWG as the minimum. This range provides flexibility for common automation wiring while maintaining a reliable crimp. Designers can simplify BOMs by selecting this common range, reducing the need for multiple terminal options and easing stock management.
Crimping should align with the stamped-and-formed geometry and use the recommended tool set for size #16/20 pins. Ensure proper insulation grip engagement and verify crimp height within specification to achieve consistent electrical contact and mechanical retention. Pre-inspect the active contact surface (gold) and rear surface (nickel) for clean plating before assembly.
Yes, SM16M11D70REV carries RoHS and REACH compliance as indicated in its environmental specifications. This ensures regulatory alignment for electronic waste restrictions and chemical safety across regions, supporting global manufacturing and distribution without compromising performance or warranty terms.
Reeled packaging enables streamlined feeding into automated crimping and assembly lines, reducing handling damage and scrap. It supports high-volume production by maintaining continuous supply and minimizing changeovers. For robotics and control-panel builds, reeled contacts help maintain cycle times and improve overall line efficiency.
