3M™ Scotchlok™ Female Disconnect is an insulated disconnect that can be used to electrically tap into a wire in mid-span without cutting or stripping the wire. It attaches to its mating part by slipping the tongue of the female part over male. The connector then mates with a .250 inch (6.35 millimeter) male tab, making a reusable quick-connect wiring termination. It has good corrosion resistance, improved mechanical performance, and is both versatile and easy to use. It has dents and rolled edges to offer good holding force, while allowing for a quick disconnect. It withstands a maximum temperature of 221 degrees Fahrenheit (105 degrees Celsius) and its durable brass construction offers good conductivity and a tin-plated finish resists corrosion. The suggested application tool for this connector is the 3M™ Crimping Tool, E-9BM, with a mate of 0.250 inch male tab MNG10-250 DMI. 3M™ Scotchlok™ Female Disconnects are UL Recognized and CSA certified.
3M™ Scotchlok™ Insulation Displacement Connectors 951, 952 and 953 are 600V rated for building wire and 1000V rated for signs, fixtures and luminaires. They withstand temperatures of 221 degrees F (105 degrees C). UL Listed, CSA Certified and RoHS 2011/65/EU Compliant.
