The Ultra-Fast Fully Insulated
FASTON Receptacle and
Tab offers the advantage of
a completely protected
terminal and a wire crimp
with comparable
electromechanical
performance to open barrel
“F” crimp FASTON Terminals.
The “User-Friendly” design
combines easy mating with
rounded corners. The .187
and .250 series receptacles
incorporate a two-stage roll
configuration and a canti-
lever mounted dimple which
provides easy insertion and
multiple independent points
of contact for reduced tab
interface resistance.
Ultra-Fast Fully Insulated
FASTON Receptacles,
Flag Receptacles and Tabs
preclude the need for costly
electrical safety interlocks or
special protective shields to
help prevent shock hazards.
In addition, electrical short
circuits from exposed leads
are eliminated, even in
equipment requiring close
contact spacing.
The Ultra-Fast FASTON
Receptacle, Flag Receptacle
and Tab are preinsulated
assemblies featuring a
housing molded from
type 6/6 nylon material
with a +130°C UL
temperature rating.
The Ultra-Fast FASTON
Receptacle housing
completely encloses a tin
plated copper alloy Premier
FASTON receptacle which
has been stress-relieved for
increased durability and
resistance to abuse. The
FASTON receptacle is
recessed sufficiently within
the housing to allow its use
in 600-volt applications. The
receptacle portion of the
terminal is designed for
positive mating with a variety
of tabs, including those with
shoulders. The housing has
a slotted membrane which
is displaced by two tab
shoulders allowing proper
engagement of tab and
receptacle while maintaining
the fully insulated
characteristic.
Positive entry and lead-in of
the tab is provided by the
inner housing wall and the
lead-in on the terminal rolls.
This permits positive
engagement, even in blind
mating locations.
The Ultra-Fast FASTON
Tab housing completely
encloses a tin plated copper
alloy FASTON tab. The
FASTON tab is recessed
sufficiently within the
housing to allow its use in
600-volt applications. The
housing is designed to
completely encapsulate the
tab and receptacle when the
two are mated.
Quality control is easily
maintained. The nylon
housing is translucent,
allowing visual inspection of
the termination. In addition,
a crimp code on the platform
hand tool is indented into the
housing during the crimping
operation which identifies
that the proper crimp dies
were used.
Depending on production
requirements, TE provides
a complete selection of
terminating equipment from
hand tools to automatic
lead makers.

Test Specifications
The following information and accompanying graphs are
taken from TE Product Qualification Testing of Ultra-Fast
FASTON product. Tests were conducted on representative
production samples, and all values shown are averages of
group results. The values shown are typical results and
may vary due to differences in processing, application and
methods of testing.
Current vs. Temperature Rise (16 AWG)
To test a product, it must be subjected to 500 on and off
cycles at twice the rated current for the particular wire size.
The temperature rise is measured on the 24th cycle and
the 500th cycle. The maximum temperature rise is limited
to 85°C above ambient temperature with a maximum of
15°C increase on any sample between the 24th and 500th
cycles. Our testing of 16 AWG wire application indicated a
25.5°C maximum temperature rise up to 500 cycles, with a
maximum increase of 0.8°C from the 24th to the 500th
cycle for one sample in the test group.
Engagement/Separation
Ultra-Fast Fully Insulated
FASTON Receptacles and Tabs
The heat generated by the current passing through
a termination is a primary limit to the load-carrying
capabilities of the application. A low termination resistance
will produce a lower temperature rise as current is applied.
In order to evaluate this characteristic, UL has established
current ratings for each wire size and set a maximum
temperature rise to assure safe operation. For example, 16
AWG stranded wire has a UL 310 maximum temperature
rise of 30°C above ambient temperature at the rated current
of 10 amps. In the testing of the Ultra-Fast FASTON product
applied to 16 AWG wire, the temperature rise was found to
be below 10°C at the rated current. In fact, the temperature
rise did not exceed 30°C until the current was above 20
amps, more than twice the rated current.
Current Cycling vs. Temperature Rise (16 AWG)
The forces caused by the rolls of FASTON style terminals
determine the contact interface integrity of a mated
receptacle and tab. These forces must be high enough to
prevent oxidation and corrosion from forming inside the
contact area. As these forces are raised to increase the
electrical performance, the engagement and separation
forces for mating the contacts are significantly increased.
For this reason, the Premier Low Insertion Force FASTON
concept of receptacle design has been carried over to the
Ultra-Fast FASTON products. This feature provides
consistent engagement and separation forces while
maintaining a high standard of electrical reliability.
Crimp Tensile
Maintaining a safe temperature rise during cyclic
applications of excessive current is the toughest challenge
for the crimp-thru-plastic concept. The ability of the
Ultra-Fast FASTON product line to meet this goal sets it
apart from other preinsulated terminations. TE’s experience
in crimp development results in a termination that exhibits
stable heating characteristics which are well within the
safety requirements of the industry.

The crimp tensile strength of a wire-to-terminal connection
is important in guarding against such hazards as wire
flexing, vibration and wire strain. However, maximum tensile
strength does not insure maximum electrical performance.
An acceptable compromise between tensile strength and
electrical performance must always be reached, using
recommended crimp heights.

housing are molded from
type 6/6 nylon material with
a +130°C UL temperature
rating. The insulation barrel
is molded from a premium
grade nylon selected to
retain the insulation crimp
shape. This premium
nylon exhibits minimal
springback, thus providing
actual insulation crimp
tensile strength as well as
strain relief for applications
where extreme wire
dressing and/or vibration
are present.
The Ultra-Fast Plus FASTON
receptacle housing
completely encloses a tin
plated copper alloy premier
FASTON receptacle which
has been stress relieved for
increased durability and
resistance to operator
abuse. The FASTON
receptacle is recessed
sufficiently within the
housing to allow its use in
600-volt applications. The
receptacle portion of the
terminal is designed for
positive mating with a
variety of tabs, including
those with shoulders. The
housing has a slotted
membrane which is
displaced by two tab
shoulders allowing proper
engagement of tab and
receptacle while
maintaining the fully
insulated characteristics.
Positive entry and lead-in of
the tab is provided by the
inner housing wall and the
lead-in on the terminal
rolls. This permits positive
engagement, even in blind
mating locations.
The Ultra-Fast Plus FASTON
tab housing completely
encloses a tin plated
copper alloy FASTON tab.
The FASTON tab is
recessed sufficiently within
the housing to allow its use
in 600-volt applications.
The housing is designed to
completely encapsulate the
tab and receptacle when
the two are mated.
Quality control is easily
maintained. The nylon
housing is translucent,
allowing visual inspection of
the termination.
Depending on
production requirements,
TE provides a complete
selection of terminating
equipment from hand tools
to automatic lead makers.
