TE Connectivity's Multi-Position Mounted FASTIN-FASTON Housings

TE Connectivity (TE) introduces three position housings on a 7 mm centerline for use with crimp type 250 series FASTIN-FASTON tabs and FASTON receptacles. The new wire-to-wire housings meet the Glow Wire test 750°C, no flame, as well as UL94 V-0 flammability. The housings are used on room air conditioners and similar applications where a three-position wire-to-wire power connection is required, and an ergonomic solution to help speed assembly might be welcomed.
