Custom engineered IDC (insulation displacement connection) terminals
that utilize preloaded internal contacts for wire attachment and
eliminate the need for labor intensive wire stripping equipment
have been introduced by ETCO Incorporated of Warwick, Rhode Island.
ETCO IDC Connectors allow for the rapid assembly of multiple wires
into one terminal by integrating a set of blades into the connector
design which cuts through the insulation of the wires and provides
one-step attachment. Ideally suited for solid wire applications
from 18 to 28 Ga, they create gas tight contacts and eliminate the
need for wire stripping and crimping.
Permitting high-speed, fully automated assembly and testing of
30 or more wires, depending upon the connector type, ETCO IDC Connectors
require much lower insertion forces than crimped connectors. Supplied
as strip for auto- mated processing equipment, they can be made
in sizes from .001” to .032” thick from brass, tinned
brass, phosphor bronze, and beryllium copper.
ETCO IDC Connectors are priced according to design, material, and
quantity. Samples and price quotations are available upon request.
