DESCRIPTION
SAMPLE MARKING
* Terminal C has a lead length of 0.156" ± 0.015" [3.962mm ± 0.381mm] therefore it is not necessary to indicate the lead length digit. The Captive
Crimp is designed for circuit boards with hole sizes .044" to .048" [1.118mm to 1.219mm] in diameter. Please consult us if you have a specific
requirement.
