TE wire and cable interconnect and termination products offer innovative designs and are made from high-strength materials to provide reliability and long-life performance.

Reliable, Affordable Connection These products are engineered to terminate wires and components to a printed circuit board (PCB). Our portfolio of tabs, pins, receptacles, and taps offer a reliable, cost-effective solution for attaching components with pin contacts to a printed circuit board. These products are held in place without solder, which means you can easily remove the component during replacement or repair. With our semiautomatic or automatic machines, you can quickly insert and securely clinch our receptacle contacts to the PCB.

Ring terminals and spade lugs for reliable electrical connections Ring terminals – known as lug terminals – are electrical terminals that join wiring to a stud or screw connection. On one end, ring terminals are equipped with a closed or open crimp barrel to make an electrical connection with the wire. On the other end is a ring-shaped tongue installed on equipment by a bolt or screw that goes through the ring. Spade terminals – known as spade lugs – join or disconnect a single wire that is connected to a screw or stud. Its shape, which resembles a fork or spade, allows the user to easily connect or disconnect the electrical connection. Spade terminals can help you to connect electrical wires quickly, because screws and bolts only require loosening – instead of complete disassembly – when attaching or removing a connection.
