Crimp terminal adapters allow different types of terminals to connect to one another. The term is also used as a catch-all for crimp terminals by some manufacturers.
What are crimp terminal adapters used for?
Crimp terminal adapters are used to connect different types of terminals, and are used for a variety of applications ranging from common household items to heavy-duty industrial equipment. In most cases, a special type of receptacle is required to receive a specific type of connector. However, if one or both connectors cannot be changed, an adapter can be employed.
Types of crimp terminal adapters
Crimp terminal adapters vary in type, as each model is designed to connect specific kinds of terminals, such as butt-splice terminals and quick-disconnect terminals. Types of crimp terminal adapters include male-to-female, male-to-male, and female-to-female.
The bodies of these adapters can be made of metal (such as brass, copper or stainless steel), or other materials like vinyl, while the plating is often made of nickel or tin.
