What is the terminal body made of?
The terminal body is made of copper for good electrical conductivity.
Troubleshooting
Terminal does not crimp securely
Ensure you are using a compatible crimping tool and that the wire is properly seated within the terminal before crimping. Verify the wire gauge is within the 1.5mm² - 2.5mm² range.
Poor electrical connection after installation
Re-crimp the terminal, ensuring sufficient pressure is applied. Check that the copper conductor is making good contact with the terminal's internal conductive surfaces. Inspect the wire for damage.
Insulation is damaged during crimping
Adjust the crimping tool's pressure setting if possible, or ensure the wire is correctly positioned to avoid the insulation being caught by the crimping jaws. Use a tool specifically designed for insulated terminals.
