MULTILOCK Terminal for Automotive Connector Assemblies
The TE MULTILOCK contact system includes multiple terminal sizes and connector configurations for automotive electrical systems. The product family supports applications requiring compact signal and power connections in vehicle wiring assemblies.
The 173682-1 terminal can be considered for applications such as:
Automotive wiring harnesses
Body control wiring
Vehicle lighting connections
Dashboard and instrument wiring
Electronic control module connections
Sensors and actuator connections
Transportation equipment
Automotive maintenance and repair programs
The part is an unsealed terminal. Engineers should confirm whether the complete connector system requires additional sealing components for exposure to moisture, dust or other environmental conditions.
Important Selection Considerations
Before purchasing 173682-1, verify the following parameters against the connector assembly:
Wire Size
The terminal supports wire sizes from 22 to 20 AWG, corresponding to approximately 0.3–0.56 mm².
Mating Interface
The product uses a 1 mm wide tab with a nominal thickness of 0.64 mm. The mating terminal and housing must support the same interface dimensions.
Plating
The mating interface uses tin plating. Buyers replacing a different suffix or variant should confirm that the plating specification meets the electrical and environmental requirements of the application.
Crimping and Tooling
Correct tooling and crimp parameters are important for terminal retention and electrical performance. The applicable TE documentation should be reviewed before production assembly.
