2141828-2

Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 2141828-2 is a tab terminal designed for automotive applications. It features gold plating on the contact surface to ensure reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance. The terminal is engineered to terminate wires within the 26 AWG to 25 AWG range, corresponding to a cross-sectional area of .13 mm² to .17 mm². It has a tab width of .63 mm (.025 in) and a tab thickness of .63 mm (.025 in). The component is unsealed and intended for direct wire termination.

Feature Summary

• Gold-plated contact surface for enhanced durability
• Designed for automotive terminal applications
• Unsealed construction for specific wiring needs

Applications

• Automotive electrical systems
• Wire-to-wire or wire-to-board connections requiring tab terminals

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact specifications against the official manufacturer datasheet before procurement. Confirm that the wire gauge requirements match the 26–25 AWG range and that the unsealed design suits the environmental conditions of the target application. Ensure compatibility with the intended crimping tools and mating connectors.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a gold-plated tab terminal is required for small gauge automotive wiring. The specific dimensions of .63 mm width and thickness must align with the connector housing and tooling constraints. Consider the unsealed nature of the terminal when evaluating protection against moisture or contaminants compared to sealed alternatives.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MQS Automotive Terminals series by TE Connectivity. It is a discrete contact component rather than a complete connector assembly. It is typically used in conjunction with compatible housings and mating contacts to form complete interconnect solutions for vehicle electrical networks.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official TE Connectivity substitution guides for verified equivalents. Generic automotive tab terminals may not match the precise .63 mm dimensional tolerances or gold plating specifications required for this application.
