TE Connectivity 2.5mm Centerline GRACE INERTIA Connectors
TE Connectivity's (TE) 2.5mm Centerline GRACE INERTIA Connectors utilize advanced design concepts to facilitate a more stable, reliable, and durable connection. The series features an inertia locking mechanism to prevent defective products caused by half-mating. The mechanism also helps to prevent connectors from being disconnected during movement or transportation. Terminal Position Assurance (TPA) helps ensure the contacts are properly seated in the housing while offering extra protection against contact back-out. The design structure also reduces contact insertion force by as much as 59% during assembly. TE 2.5mm Centerline GRACE INERTIA Connectors offer 2, 3, 5, 6, 8 positions, 50VAC/DC voltage rating, and 3A max. current rating. Ideal applications include air conditioning, refrigerators, cooking, microwave ovens, dishwashers, and industrial controls.
