3. REQUIREMENTS
3.1. Safety
Do not stack product shipping containers so high that the containers buckle or deform.
3.2. Storage
A. Ultraviolet Light
Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet light may deteriorate the chemical composition used in the contact
material.
B. Shelf Life
The contacts should remain in the shipping containers until ready for use to prevent deformation to the
contacts. The contacts should be used on a first in, first out basis to avoid storage contamination that could
adversely affect performance.
C. Chemical Exposure
Do not store contacts near any chemical listed below as they may cause stress corrosion cracking in the
contacts.
Alkalies
Amines
Ammonia
Carbonates
Citrates
Nitrites
Phosphates Citrates
Sulfur Nitrites
Sulfur Compounds
Tartrates
3.3. Reeled Products
When using reeled contacts, store coil wound reels horizontally and traverse wound reels vertically. When using
tape-mounted contacts, care must be taken to prevent stretching, sagging, or other distortion that would prevent
smooth feeding of the tape through automatic machine feed mechanisms. Store coil wound reels horizontally
and traverse wound reels vertically.
3.4. Wire Selection and Preparation
The contacts will accept wire size ranges provided in Figure 2.

3.5. Crimped Contact Requirements
The contact shall be located in desired tooling and crimped according to the instructions packaged with that
tooling. See Section 5, TOOLING, of this document for details on tooling options.
CAUTION
Wire insulation shall NOT be cut or broken during the crimping operation, nor shall the insulation be crimped into the
contact wire barrel. Reasonable care should be taken by tooling operators to provide undamaged wire terminations.

A. Wire Barrel Crimp
The crimp applied to the wire portion of the contact is the most compressed area and is most critical in
ensuring optimum electrical and mechanical performance of the crimped contact. The contact wire barrel
crimp height must be within the dimension provided in Figure 3.
B. Effective Crimp Length
For optimum crimp effectiveness, the crimp must be within the area shown and must meet the crimp
dimensions provided in Figure 2. Effective crimp length shall be defined as that portion of the wire barrel,
excluding bellmouth(s), fully formed by the crimping tool. Instructions for adjusting, repairing, and inspecting
tools are packaged with the tools. See Section 5, TOOLING.
C. Bellmouths
The front and rear bellmouths shall be as shown and conform to the dimensions given in Figure 3.
D. Burrs
The cutoff burr shall not exceed the dimensions shown in Figure 3.
E. Cutoff Tab
The cutoff tab shall be as shown in Figure 3.
F. Wire Barrel Flash
The wire barrel flash shall not exceed the dimensions shown in Figure 3, Section X-X.
G. Wire Barrel Seam
The wire barrel seam shall be completely closed and there shall be not evidence of loose wire strands or
wire strands visible in the seam.

H. Conductor Location
The end of the wire shall be flush with the front end of the wire barrel or extend to the dimension shown in
Figure 3. Both insulation and conductor shall be visible between the insulation barrel and wire barrel.
CAUTION
Care shall be taken not to allow insulation to be crimped in the wire barrel.
!
I. Insulation Barrel Crimp
Crimp width and type shall be as shown in Figure 3.
CAUTION
Reasonable care shall be taken not to cut or break the insulation during the crimping operation.
!
J. Twist and Roll
There shall be no twist, roll, deformation or other damage to the mating portion of the crimped contact that
will impair usage of the contact. See Figure 3.
K. Straightness
The force applied during crimping may cause some bending between the crimped wire barrel and the mating
portion of the contact. Such deformation is acceptable within the limits provided in Figure 4.
