H3AXT-10112-Y6

Pre-Crimped Leads are the most common type of Jumper Wires. These wires are pre-crimped onto connectors, making them ideal for quickly connecting two points in a circuit board. The pre-crimped leads are usually made of copper or nickel-plated copper, for high electrical conductivity and resistance to corrosion. The connectors are usually wrapped with heat-shrinkable tubing to protect the wire from wear and tear, and also to prevent short circuits.

The most common type of Pre-Crimped Leads is the H3AXT-10112-Y6. This lead is made with a 0.75 mm² AWG 24 core, and is suitable for low-current applications. It has a maximum current-carrying capacity of 5 Amps, with a maximum voltage of 120 VDC. This lead is great for connecting small components, such as LED\'s, transistors and resistors. The insulation material used is UL94V-0 rated and it is rated to operate in temperatures ranging from -55°C to 105°C.

The working principle behind the H3AXT-10112-Y6 is simple: when two points in a circuit are connected by a jumper wire, it provides a connection for the electrical current to pass through. The insulation material around the connector prevents short circuits, while the pre-crimped lead reduces contact resistance for maximum current-carrying capacity. The wire gauge used also affects the amount of current that can be transferred, with larger wires being able to carry more current.
