61060-1 terminals, also commonly known as quick connects, and quick disconnect connectors, are the most widely used terminal connectors due to their easy installation and display. Able to securely connect a wire quickly to another, they offer multiple points of connection and are an essential component to a variety of industries.

Overview

61060-1 terminals are the most popular type of quick connect/disconnect terminal connectors used in a multitude of industries. They’re made up of a pin or male terminal which is connected to the internal circuit, and a female terminal attached to the external wire. Both male and female are often two different colors for ease of identification and are made to be quickly and securely connect and disconnected. The 61060-1 terminal is physically designed to provide a reliable connection, unable to be disconnected by accidental vibration or movement. Some are designed in such a way that a tool is required to separate the terminals.

Application Fields

61060-1 terminals are widely used in a variety of industries. From automobiles to appliances, they’re used to connect electrical components securely through the use of extremely high contact pressure. 61060-1 terminals are often used in connectors which require absolute safety, such as; power supplies, loudspeakers, motor starting switches and electric sockets.

In the automotive industry, quick connect/disconnect terminals are the most common way to connect and disconnect any electrical wiring. This allows for the quick and easy installation, and removal of wire harnesses. This enables the car to be quickly and easily tested and repaired when needed. They are also often used for lighting, home appliances and in general electrical wiring.

Construction and Working Principle

61060-1 terminals can be made from a variety of different materials. But the most common material being used in its construction is brass, steel, or copper alloy Due to its excellent electrical conducting properties. The male terminal is usually hollow and cylindrical in shape, often same shape and size as the wire gauge it is meant to fit. On the front of the terminal you will see a flat front and back section respectively. The female terminal is typically a round and hollow cylinder, with a slightly larger diameter than the male terminal. Inside the variety of materials used in its construction it can contain a range of insulation materials containing varying levels of fire-resistance, temperature resistance and dielectric strength.

When the male terminal is inserted into the female connector, its flat sections passes through a pair of clamps located on the forehead of the female terminal. The clamps come together to form contact pins which meet the flat ends of the male terminal, thus providing secure electrical connection. Pressure is applied to the male terminal, ensuring perfect connection. When it comes time to separate them, the clamps are pushed back slightly which releases the pressure and allowing for the terminals to be easily disconnected from each other.

Conclusion

61060-1 terminals are highly popular and versatile connectors, used for a multitude of electrical connections. Thanks to their ease of installation and disconnection process, these terminals are widely used in a variety of industries. Its reliable connection and secure contact makes 61060-1 terminals the go-to terminal for many electrical and automobile projects.
