1358-2

1358-2 Application Field and Working Principle

The 1358-2 terminal is a PC pin, single post connector used in a wide variety of applications. It is available for both single and multiple connectors and is designed to create secure connections between two or more sets of electrical or electronic devices. The 1358-2 terminal is used in communication networks, military, aerospace, industrial automation, consumer electronics, automotive, and medical applications.

Types of 1358-2 Terminals

1358-2 terminals are available in two types: a Positive Contact type and a Neutral Contact type. The Positive Contact type is typically used for high load applications such as motors, power supplies, and current-carrying circuit boards. The Neutral Contact type is generally used for low-power applications such as power and signal interfaces.

Material Construction

1358-2 terminals are constructed using a variety of materials. Common materials include steel, copper, aluminum, and plastic. Steel provides high mechanical strength and electrical conductivity. Copper, aluminum, and plastic provide excellent electrical conductivity and dielectric strength. The material choice is largely dependent on the application requirements.

Connection Method

1358-2 terminals are connected to devices by inserting the terminal into the device’s connection port. The terminal is then secured with a locking nut or other securing device. After the terminal is securely connected, electrical signals and power can be transmitted between devices.

Contact Mechanism and Voltages

1358-2 terminals are designed to carry both AC and DC voltages. The voltage should not exceed the rated voltage for a particular terminal. The contact mechanism is typically a coiled spring contact pin that is compressed when it is inserted into the socket. This provides an extremely secure connection between the terminals and the device.

Applications and Benefits

1358-2 terminals are used in a variety of applications. They provide a reliable connection in applications that require high levels of protection from environmental influences such as dirt, moisture, and vibration. The terminals provide a secure connection that is resistant to failure due to shock and vibration. The terminals also provide a reliable, low-loss connection that can handle high operating temperatures.

1358-2 terminals are commonly used to connect high load current-carrying devices such as motors, power supplies, and circuit boards. The terminals are also used in communications networks, aerospace, industrial automation, consumer electronics, automotive, and medical equipment. The terminals are easy to install, cost efficient, and can be used for a variety of applications.
