Crimp piggyback terminals are solderless electrical connections. They are most often used to terminate stranded wires in domestic or industrial electronics.
Crimping means that the wire is bent around a joint and then squeezed together with a crimp tool. This is a cold working technique to form electrical connections without using solder.
What are crimp piggyback terminals used for?
Crimp piggyback terminals have a hook-shaped design in order to connect with other terminals. Because of the larger size of this component, crimp piggyback terminals are often used in applications where there is plenty of space, like in air conditioners and heating appliances.
Crimp piggyback terminals are available for a number of different wire diameters. There are insulated or non-insulated types and shrouded and unshrouded types (with or without plastic cover).
