Terminals - Quick Connects, Quick Disconnect Connectors refer to electrical connector types which enable an elaborate connection to be established between two points in an electrical circuit without having to resort to soldering or use of electrical tools. Generally, these connectors contain two parts - a male & female element - with both of them featuring a secure lock so that movement upon mating is avoided. 160173-1 is one such type of terminal which is typically used in the manufacturing industry to create electrically secure connections and enable secure wire and cable harnesses across multiple junctions.

The 160173-1 Quick Connect/Quick Disconnect Connector comprises of two 2-piece plastic, separate parts: the Female Terminal Base (Blue) and the Male Terminal Plug (Gray or Black) which together give superior performance by providing an reliable connector with superior strain relief & anti-vibration properties. These connectors are suitable for tinned, shielded or non-shielded cables with either solid or flexible conductors.

The working principle of the 160173-1 terminal connector is based on achieving the desired electrical connection in a quick and efficient manner. This is achieved by providing an easy to mount quick connect/quick disconnect terminal for applications such as instrumentation, automation, control panels, robotics, and other high power and communication systems. The two pieces of the quick-connect contacts fit effectively when mated which provides a solid and secure electrical and mechanical connection. The secure, two piece element helps in avoiding any potential disconnects due to vibration, shock or moisture related issues.

The application areas for these units are vast and with improved versions now being available on the market, handymen, technicians, and engineers have reason to rejoice. The 160173-1 terminal can be used in different electronic and mechanical systems including lighting, air conditioning, HVAC, communications, renewable energy systems, utility plants, control and instrumentation and many others. In automotive wiring these connectors are used for instance in sensors, switches, lamps, communication systems, computer and electronic control systems, AC and DC Motors, Starter Cables, Fuses and Distribution blocks. Likewise, there are a plethora of possible applications for 160173-1 in production systems, renewable energy sources, medical and laboratory instrumentation, and many other fields.

To ensure that the connection is shielded and vibration resistant, 160173-1 terminal has a routing interface which offers flexible protection. This routing interface includes not only the contact terminals, but also a housing unit which is compact with an angled design & knockouts that allow for identical constructions through the entire layout. This feature allows multi-circuit harnesses to be routed in a single housing. The angled design of the connector adds to the contact retention force when mated, thus increasing the overall system reliability.

The 160173-1 Quick Connect/Quick Disconnect Connectors are definately preferred over other means of connecting wires in the electrical wiring systems as it saves time & costs associated with other methods like soldering and crimping tools or cable sleeping. These terminals are durable, they can be reused or refitted easily (as and when required) without any damage, and they offer superior in-field service & maintenance resulting in maximum system productivity.
