Terminals - Quick Connects, Quick Disconnect Connectors have been widely used in various types of electronic applications for decades. The 42641-2 application field and working principle make use of electrical contact technology to enable a low-voltage, high-current, bi-directional signal connection.

This application field includes electrical control panels, relays, computers, thermostats, process controllers, batteries, and other electronic and electrical devices. The working principle of the connectors is simple. Electrical contact is achieved when a metal pin is inserted into the rear of the connector, creating a connection between the two contact points. This connection is then held in place with a positive locking mechanism and a dust cap to protect the contact points from dust and dirt.

The 42641-2 terminal’s contact area is composed of a contact spring and a contact box. The contact box is usually made of a conductive material such as copper or gold and is inserted into the rear of the terminal. When the pin is inserted into the terminal, this creates an electrical path between the two contact points. This contact path is then held together by the contact spring and the contact box. The contact spring is what provides the contact pressure to keep the connection secure while the contact box provides an electrical barrier between the contact points.

The 42641-2 terminals are available in various sizes depending on the application requirements. Some of the commonly used sizes are 8-32, 10-32, 12-24, 14-36, 16-36, 18-40, and 20-44. Depending on the size of the pin, the terminals are also available in a variety of terminal brackets.

Terminals - Quick Connects, Quick Disconnect Connectors are designed to provide a quick and easy way to establish an electrical connection between two electronic components. The terminal’s positive locking mechanism ensures that the connection remains secure under any kind of stress, making it ideal for applications in harsh environments. Moreover, their dust cap offers an additional layer of protection against dust and debris for the contact points.

Apart from their low-voltage and high-current applications, the 42641-2 terminals are also suitable for low-voltage applications such as in automotive, residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. In any case, these terminals are almost always easy to assemble, maintain, and repair. As a result, they are used widely in various types of industries.
