Positive Lock Terminals

Technical Specification

Features:

Make: TE Connectivity
Model code: Positive Lock Terminals
Type: Wire-to-Wire, Wire-to-Board
Wire Size: 26-10 AWG
Materials / Plating: Base: Brass, Phos. Bronze, Steel ; Plating: Tin, Pre-tin, Silver, Nickel

Additional info:

Positive Lock terminals and housings are differentiated by their low insertion force (LIF) locking receptacles that offer easy assembly and reliable tab mating. The Positive Lock receptacle achieves high retention force while maintaining LIF by securely locking onto a hole in the mating tab. They provide the assembler with an audible and mechanical “snap” when the terminal is correctly seated, ensuring proper assembly - even in hard-to-reach places. The Positive Lock family features multiple series of quick connect terminals, including the ergonomic Mark I series, the Mark II series for value and reliability, and the Mark III series for design flexibility. Applications include appliances, industrial equipment, and automotive.
