170266-2

Terminals - Quick Connects, Quick Disconnect Connectors offer a safe and reliable way to connect and disconnect electrical signals. The 170266-2 is a quick connect/disconnect terminal specifically designed to offer the highest levels of reliability and durability. This terminal is perfect for applications where frequent connections and disconnections of electrical signals are required, such as automotive, industrial and military systems.

The 170266-2 terminal is constructed from combining two hardened contacts with a hard plastic outer shell. The shell is designed to provide an airtight seal around the contacts which prevents corrosion and other kinds of environmental damage to the contacts. The contacts are machined using a high precision process to ensure exacting tolerances and a perfect fit. The contacts are then securely crimped to the hard plastic shell to ensure a safe and reliable connection. The shell is designed to prevent any accidental releases, and can be easily removed by a user if necessary.

The 170266-2 terminal is designed to be used in harsh environments, such as those found in industrial and automotive applications, and is also resistant to extreme temperature variations. This terminal is especially beneficial in applications where vibrations are present, as it is designed to prevent any movement of the contacts which could weaken the connection. Additionally, the terminal will provide reliable protection against shock, vibrations, and other environmental conditions.

The working principle of the 170266-2 terminal is relatively simple. When connected to an electrical source, the current is transmitted through the contacts to the device to be powered. When the device is disconnected, the contact springs open to break the connection and the current is no longer transmitted. The spring-loaded contacts allow for a quick release without any tools required. This makes the terminal especially easy to use and ensures a reliable connection.

In summary, the 170266-2 is a quick connect/disconnect terminal specifically designed to provide maximum reliability and durability in harsh environments. This terminal provides a reliable connection that is easy to use and resistant to shock, vibration, and temperature changes. The working principle of the terminal is simple - a spring-loaded connection is established when the contacts are connected, and the connection is broken when the contacts are released. This terminal is an ideal choice for applications which require frequent connections and disconnections.
