Crimp terminals are essential components for connecting wires and electrical equipment and exchanging power and signals.
It was developed around 1925, before crimp terminals became popular and soldering was mainstream.
In addition to using crimp terminals, there are other ways to connect wires and electrical equipment, such as soldering with insulation tape or direct wrapping.
But welding requires technical skills and can cause burns.
When secured with insulating tape, there is a risk of short circuits and it is difficult to assemble different wire thicknesses/types/standards beautifully.
Point crimp terminals eliminate the need to worry about burns or connections between different wires.
Two types: bare crimp terminal (round/R-type) and bare crimp terminal (open front/Y-type).

Bare crimp terminals (pill type/R type)

Bare crimp terminals (first open type/Y type)
In fact, there is no problem in choosing any crimp terminal.
Below we will introduce the advantages and disadvantages of bare crimp terminals and provide you with considerations when choosing them.
| 〇Advantages | ×Disadvantages | |
|---|---|---|
| Pill type/R type | Good safety A bit cheaper than model Y For example, even if a screw is slightly loose, it will still hold *Looseness enough to lift the terminal may cause sparks. |
Poor operability Ex. The screws must be completely removed and installed |
| Pre-opening type/Y type | good processability Ex. Can be installed immediately without removing screws. |
Poor security Price is slightly higher compared to round shape If the screw is loose, it may fall off directly Ex. Risk of direct contact with electricity |
| 〇Advantages | ×Disadvantages | |
|---|---|---|
| naked | Working hours can be shortened Cheaper than semi-insulated For example, place it where there is no direct contact, such as with a lid |
Poor security Depending on the installation location, insulation may be required later. |
The choice of crimp terminals is usually based on the user's preference.
Experienced engineers often make choices based on past experience.
