Molex 43031 Series Male Crimp Terminal, 8.5A Current, 24 AWG Min to 20 AWG Max Wire Size 43031-0002

Molex 43031-0002 is a male crimp terminal from the 43031 series designed to mate with Micro-Fit 3.0 and Micro-Fit BMI connector housings. This crimp terminal supports wire sizes ranging from 24 AWG minimum to 20 AWG maximum, carrying a current up to 8.5 amperes. The contact material is phosphor bronze, which provides strong mechanical strength and electrical conductivity, while the gold plating offers excellent corrosion resistance and low contact resistance of a maximum of 10 milliohms.

The crimp termination type provides a secure mechanical connection for reliable electrical performance, suitable for industrial and commercial electronics including motherboards, printers, and scanners. Its robust design allows it to withstand temperatures from -40°C up to 105°C, ensuring reliability in varying environmental conditions.

This crimp terminal can endure up to 30 mating cycles, making it reusable and ideal for applications requiring frequent connections and disconnections. The locking tangs in the Micro-Fit 3.0 series secure the contacts firmly in place to prevent loosening during operation.

Molex’s 43031 series crimp contacts deliver multiple points of electrical contact to guarantee a dependable and low-resistance connection, enhancing energy efficiency by minimizing heat dissipation during current flow. The product is designed to meet demanding requirements in electronics manufacturing, providing flexibility with different wiring and plating options.
