Molex 2478 Series Female Crimp Terminal 24 - 18 AWG, Brass, Tin Plated, 5A, KK 396 Housing, 08-50-0106

The Molex 08-50-0106 female crimp terminal from the 2478 Series is a precision engineered contact designed for secure and reliable electrical connections in PCB and wire housings. Suitable for use with Molex KK 396 connector housing, it is intended for commercial, light industrial, automotive, and consumer electronics applications.

This terminal accepts wires ranging from 24 AWG (0.2mm²) up to 18 AWG (0.8mm²), making it versatile for signal and low-power operations. The component is rated for up to 5A current, providing dependable performance in a wide range of circuit designs. Made from brass with tin plating, it offers excellent conductivity as well as corrosion resistance for long-term reliability under varying environmental conditions.

The contact design includes a dual cantilever and square post surface to ensure strong spring-like electrical contact with the mating pin header, while a locking tang prevents terminal back-out from the housing. Crimp-type termination technology creates an airtight seal, preventing moisture and debris from entering and ensuring that connections remain robust and resistant to environmental factors.

With a maximum contact resistance of 10mΩ, users can rely on high-quality low-resistance signal paths. The operating temperature range spans from 0°C to 50°C, supporting installation in both commercial and light industrial environments. No filler alloy is used, enhancing mechanical strength and performance.

This terminal is suitable for a variety of applications, including automotive, consumer electronics, data, communications, and networking. Its reduced halogen content diminishes toxicity risks in case of exposure to fire or excessive heat. It has been thoroughly tested for compliance with international safety standards.
