160127

Designed for automotive electronics, the 160127 by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors sets new standards in Terminals - Spade Connectors reliability. This vibration-resistant connector system meets ISO 16750-3 specifications while providing exceptional electrical performance in engine compartment environments. Its robust construction addresses the unique challenges of next-generation vehicle architectures.The Standard configuration in this automotive-grade connector provides positive locking that exceeds USCAR-2 requirements. This design prevents accidental disconnection in high-vibration environments.Featuring 5 Stud compatibility, this terminal supports both conventional and high-voltage vehicle systems. The dual-material construction prevents galvanic corrosion in mixed-metal applications.The 0.693" (17.60mm) profile incorporates advanced strain relief that reduces conductor fatigue by 70% in dynamic applications. This feature is critical for door harness and suspension wiring.Developed for Free Hanging (In-Line) installations, this terminal simplifies assembly in confined vehicle spaces. The orientation-specific design prevents incorrect routing during manufacturing.Utilizing Crimp technology, this connector achieves gas-tight joints that resist thermal cycling. The process is compatible with both manual and automated production lines.Engineered for 14-16 AWG conductors, this terminal maintains stable contact resistance from -40 C to 125 C. The dual-spring design compensates for material expansion differences.The Non-Insulated material exceeds LV214 flame resistance requirements without compromising flexibility. Special formulations resist automotive fluids including brake fluid and transmission oil.Incorporating Brazed Seam, this connector provides IP6K9K dust/water protection without additional seals. The innovative design reduces part count while improving reliability.Tin plating technology provides exceptional corrosion resistance in salty environments. Testing shows less than 5% contact resistance change after 1000 hours of salt spray.The Copper Alloy formulation in this automotive connector offers optimal spring characteristics for vibration resistance. Advanced metallurgy ensures stable performance over 15-year vehicle lifecycles.
