WRAP POST TERMINALS
T49 TRIFURCATED KLIPWRAP POST
CLIP OR CRIMP LEADS IN FORKS
WIRE SIZES .010” TO .040” DIAMETER
Combine the advantages of a .025” square Wrap Post
with a clip action upper end which will hold leads from
.010” to .040” diameter. As a result, users have the
advantage of being able to insert wires or component
leads in the terminal where they are held tightly prior to
soldering without the necessity for wrapping the leads
around the terminal. Wires may also be crimped tightly
in the forks with pliers or special tool.
Wires of .032” or .040” diameter fit the top main slot
snugly and wires of .018” to .025” diameter fit the sec-
ond slot down from top or diagonally between rear slot
and main slot to hold wires in place until final soldering.
May be crimped closed with wires.
Intended for use with .042” diameter circuit board
holes, and may be located as close as alternate 0.1”
centers. Low cost hand insertion tools permit the termi-
nal to be pushed into board holes where it seats and
locks because of the two-step tapered shank. Once
installed, the terminal will seat adequately to withstand
wrapping torque. A full .500” or 0.32” of sq. post length
is available for wrapping or soldering connections after
installation in a 1/16” thick board.
INSERTION OF TERMINALS
:
To insert terminals a
suitable base for the circuit board is needed, as well as
an insertion tool. The simplest base is a block of styro-
foam which allows the long tails to protrude while sup-
porting the rather high insertion force required.
Alternatively, a drill press or arbor press set-up can be
used with guidance tube beneath. The terminal may
also be staked in place by this means, though retention
is generally adequate without staking.
Hand Tool P156 is suitable for inserting small quantities
of terminals; however, Impact Punch P158 with D8 die
point is much better since relatively high force is
required. Staking can be accomplished by using
adapter, P96C-2.
