1599358-1

Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 1599358-1 is a hardware component, specifically identified as a 'Christmas Tree' style fastener or clip without a gasket. This item serves as a mechanical accessory for connector assemblies rather than an electrical contact or housing itself. The component is designed to secure connectors within panels or enclosures using a friction-fit installation method typical of push-in clips. It is classified under general hardware and mounting accessories within the TE Connectivity product catalog.

Feature Summary

• Mechanical retention clip designed for panel mounting applications
• Fastener style compatible with standard rectangular connector housings
• Non-insulated design intended for direct mechanical engagement

Applications

• Securing rectangular connector housings in control panels
• Mounting electrical enclosures and chassis assemblies
• Hardware integration for industrial equipment connectivity systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific application requirements against the official TE Connectivity datasheet before procurement. Confirm that the mechanical dimensions of the target housing match the clip specifications. Ensure that the absence of a gasket aligns with the environmental sealing needs of the installation. Check current manufacturing status as this part may be obsolete or subject to supply changes.

Selection Notes

Select this component only when a non-sealed mechanical retention solution is required for the specific connector series. Evaluate the panel thickness and material compatibility to ensure proper friction fit. Consider alternative parts if environmental sealing or vibration resistance beyond basic mechanical holding is necessary. Cross-reference with the associated connector housing part numbers for dimensional accuracy.

Part Context

This component belongs to the broader category of TE Connectivity AMP Connectors hardware accessories. It complements electrical interconnect solutions by providing physical mounting stability. The product line includes various fasteners, brackets, and clips designed to integrate seamlessly with TE's extensive range of rectangular and circular connector systems used in industrial and commercial applications.
