52950-3 Connectors, Interconnects

Terminals - Spade Connectors are highly versatile devices designed to provide a dependable connection between two wires. The 52950-3 series spade connector is designed to allow greater space saving as compared to other common spade connectors. The 52950-3 has two main applications in the field, connection resolution and strain relief. It also has a distinct operational principle that makes it ideal for the intended application.

Application – The 52950-3 spade connector can be used for a variety of applications. In connection resolution applications, the 52950-3 allows two wires to be connected without the need for a solder joint, reducing labor time and energy consumption. The strain relief applications allow the connector to be used for stress relief of unevenly sized wires. This helps to ensure that the connection remains secure and not compromised by discrepancies in wire size.

Working Principle – To achieve a secure connection between the two wires, the 52950-3 uses a lengthy barrel style contact area. This contact area increases the amount of contact surface area and helps secure the connection between the two wires. The lugs used for the connection are made of a strong metal and are highly resistant to corrosion, ensuring that the connection is long-lasting. A tension clamp is also used to provide additional strain relief to the connection.

In addition to this, the 52950-3 is designed with a plastic ring that helps add extra insulation to the connection. This is especially useful in applications where the connection may be in contact with vibration or other extreme environmental conditions. The plastic ring also helps reduce the amount of EMF interference that can occur from two different conductor types being connected.

The 52950-3 spade connector is designed to provide an efficient and reliable connection between two wires. It can be used for a variety of applications, aiding in connection resolution and providing strain relief. The unique design of the connector and its components provides the necessary elements to create a secure and long lasting connection. The 52950-3 series is an ideal solution for any application requiring a dependable electrical connection.
