M Series
Pin and Socket Connectors
Power Contacts
Type I, Crimp, Snap-In, Size 12
Precision screw-machined pin and socket, Size 12 con-
tacts, they are used in Special M Series and “G” Series
connectors, and are inserted into the same cavities as
Miniature Coaxial contacts. These contacts feature a high
normal force which provides a low resistance in signifi-
cant applications. Mating entry is closed-ended to
prevent damage from stubbing due to misalignment.
Beryllium copper springs are used to provide contact
normal force and are assisted by a stainless steel hood
which provides anti-overstress assurance. Single contact
current rating is 23 amperes at 30°C Temperature Rise.
See page 36 for product details.
Type XII, Crimp-Type
Precision formed male and female contacts used in CPC
Series 3 and 4, Special M Series and “G” Series connec-
tors, these contacts offer a low cost power option which
provides additional applied cost savings when terminated
with semiautomatic application equipment. The contact
body is made from 100% copper, which provides for
excellent conductivity. Spring characteristics are derived
from a captive stainless steel spring which assists the
dual cantilever spring members of the female contact.
Single contact current rating is 35 amperes at 30°C
Temperature Rise.
See page 38 for product details.
High Current Upgrades
Precision screw-machined pin and socket contacts have
increased current capability. All upgraded contacts use
the high amperage Louvertac contact band. The design
of this contact allows for increased current in the same
form factor. For example, Type II/Type III + upgraded
contacts increase the current from 13 amperes free air
to 23 amperes free air at a 30°C Temperature Rise.
See pages 37 and 39 for product details.
