TE Connectivity Pre-Insulated POD-LOK Receptacles

TE Connectivity's Pre-Insulated POD-LOK Receptacle terminals are combined with Positive Lock receptacles featuring Glow Wire Test (GWT), UL 94 V-O rated housings. These ergonomic, low insertion force receptacles and integral robust housing terminals are supplied in strip form that can be crimped and applied in one quick step with an automatic applicator.

TE Connectivity's POD-LOK receptacles require no secondary operation to apply the housings. An automated applicator crimps the receptacle to the wire and slides the housing into its installed position. Both straight and flag types are offered in the 187 and 250 series. The LIF receptacles offer the security of a locking feature that resists accidental disconnection but permits relatively easy intentional extraction. The integrated housings provide insulation to help prevent shock and short hazards as well as act as a removal tool.
