TE Connectivity PIDG Terminals
TE Connectivity PIDG Spade Tongue Wire Crimp Terminals
PIDG (Pre-Insulated Diamond Grip) spade tongue wire crimp terminals designed for uniform reliability in the most difficult circuit environments. These PIDG spade tongue terminals consist of a precision-formed high conductivity copper body and barrel. The wire barrel is surrounded with both a copper and nylon colour coded sleeve. The copper sleeve surrounding the barrel provides improved wire insulation support after crimping allowing the wire to bend without fraying the insulation or breaking the conductor. The nylon sleeves are colour coded according to wire-size to assist with identification. Inside the PIDG spade terminal wire barrel are serrations which provide maximum contact and tensile strength after crimping. The construction of these PIDG terminals and the use of specialised tool dies allows for uniform insulation thickness under crimping pressure. This pressure is then transmitted evenly to the centre of the crimping area to produce a uniform and reliable crimp. These PIDG spade terminals also feature a funnelled wire entry which prevents turned back wire strands and allows fast wire insertion during high-speed production. Available with various wire, barrel and stud sizes, these PIDG spde terminals offer a versatile solution to a wide range of wiring applications
