AMP M Series
Pin and Socket Connectors
Signal Contacts (Continued)
Type III+, Posted Version, Size 16
The last member of the Type III+ family of contacts, the posted
version is compatible with M Series, Special M Series,
Metrimate, Metrimate Drawer, and CPC Series 1 connectors.
Precision formed, they are pre-crimped to various post config-
urations including those that accept TERMI-POINT Clip or
wire-wrap type terminations. Contacts feature high normal
force which provides a low resistance in significant applica-
tions. Mating entry is closed-ended to prevent damage from
stubbing due to misalignment. A stainless steel spring pro-
vides superior normal force and retention in the housing. AMP
proprietary gold plating process is designed so that specified
plating thicknesses are controlled on the inside of the socket,
which is the critical contact mating area. Contacts are formed
from brass. Single contact current rating is 13 amperes at 30°C
Temperature Rise.
See page 32 for product details.
Type II, Crimp, Snap-In, Size 16
Precision screw-machined pin and socket contacts, they are
used in M Series, Special M Series, “G” Series, Metrimate,
Metrimate Drawer, and CPC Series 1 and 4 connectors.
Contacts feature high normal force which provides a low resis-
tance in significant applications such as dry circuit signal
conditions. Mating entry is closed-ended to prevent damage
from stubbing due to misalignment. A stainless steel spring
provides superior normal force and retention in the housing.
The contact bodies are machined from solid brass. Single con-
tact current rating is 13 amperes at 30°C Temperature Rise.
