Sealed corrosion-proof crimped terminal of splice

摘要

A crimped terminal (or splice) has a housing (10) including a barrel (11) receiving an insert sleeve (13). The barrel (11) has a lug (12) received in a complementary notch (14) formed in the insert sleeve (13), thereby circumferentially keying the insert sleeve (13) to the barrel (11), preventing relative rotation therebetween, and reinforcing the housing (10) during the crimping process. This eliminates cracking of the housing (10) during crimping while improving heat dissipation.
