Introduction to Crimp <strong>Contacts</strong><br />

Series 80 Mighty Mouse<br />

Introduction<br />

About Our Series 80 Mighty Mouse Size #23 Crimp <strong>Contacts</strong><br />

Like all high-performance crimp contact systems, Series 80 Mighty Mouse contacts are terminated to wire using<br />

precision crimp tools, and are then snapped into place by hand or with a hand held insertion tool. Damaged or<br />

miswired contacts may be removed from the connector using special extraction tools. Although the connectors<br />

are supplied with a full complement of contacts, extra contacts are commonly purchased as spares or to use for<br />

quality assurance purposes, such as crimp tensile tests. Coaxial contacts are also typically ordered separately, as<br />

customers prefer to specify the exact performance values for these specialized shielded contacts.<br />

Mighty Mouse contacts conform to the requirements of Aerospace Standard AS39029. This SAE<br />

specification defines the design, dimensions and performance of contacts used in aerospace grade electrical<br />

connectors. The “general specification” covers a variety of contacts including thermocouple, hermetic, coaxial<br />

and triaxial types. The “slash sheets” contain dimensions and other information for specific types of contacts.<br />

Each contact is assigned a Basic Identification Number (BIN), a non-significant three digit code corresponding to<br />

the color code on the contacts. Series 80 Size #23 and size #20HD contacts conform to AS39029 requirements,<br />

but are not covered by a slash sheet. Size #20, #16 and size #12 contacts are standard AS39029 contacts.<br />
