1452668-3

The TE Connectivity 1452668-3 is a socket contact designed for use in rectangular connector systems. This crimp-style contact accommodates 18-20 AWG wire, providing a secure and reliable termination for signal or power connections. The contact features a silver finish with a thickness of 78.7µin (2.00µm), which offers good conductivity and corrosion resistance for general-purpose applications.

This contact is intended for crimp termination, a method that ensures a strong mechanical and electrical bond when used with the appropriate crimping tool. It is commonly employed in wire-to-wire or wire-to-board connector assemblies where field-replaceable or serviceable connections are required. The socket configuration mates with corresponding pin contacts to complete the connection.

The part is available in tape and reel packaging for automated assembly processes, as well as cut tape for smaller production runs. It is RoHS3 compliant and has a moisture sensitivity level of 1 (unlimited), indicating no special handling requirements for moisture exposure. The REACH status is unaffected, supporting use in various markets.

As a rectangular connector contact, this component is part of a broader family of interconnect solutions used across industrial, automotive, and consumer electronics. Its crimp termination and silver finish make it a practical choice for applications requiring reliable, repeatable connections in moderate environments.
