• Wire size 'mm' (metric) or 'AWG' (American Wire Gauge)

• Width of the receptacle should match the width of the tab it is mating with and vice versa.

How to crimp a male spade connector

Mating a wire with a terminal is an easy application achievable by professional and DIY users alike. Slide the appropriate wire into the tunnel on the connector and using pliers or a crimp tool apply moderate clamping pressure until a perfect union is achieved.
