Automotive Crimp Terminal – TP101-00100 / TP105-00100 | 50pcs Male & Female

The TP101-00100 / TP105-00100 are precision automotive crimp terminals (sheath contacts) used in wire harness repair and connector assembly. Sold in 50-piece packs for Male and Female variants, these terminals are rated for 1.0mm² wire gauge and are compatible with standard automotive connector housings using the TP101/TP105 contact series.

Key Specifications

Why Crimp Terminals Fail

Automotive crimp terminals corrode from moisture ingress, vibration-induced fretting, and thermal cycling. Corroded or pushed-back terminals cause intermittent circuit faults, high resistance connections, and voltage drop issues that trigger sensor fault codes without obvious wiring damage. Replacing terminals restores clean contact resistance and eliminates ghost faults.

Variant Guide

• 50pcs Female – 50x TP101-00100 female crimp contacts (socket side)
• 50pcs Male – 50x TP105-00100 male crimp contacts (plug side)

Installation Notes

• Strip wire insulation to 3–4mm before crimping
• Use a ratchet crimp tool rated for 1.0mm² contacts for consistent crimp quality
• Insert terminal into connector housing until the locking tab clicks
• Pull-test each terminal after insertion to verify retention
• Apply dielectric grease in moisture-exposed locations

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What connector housings are compatible with TP101-00100 / TP105-00100?
A: These terminals are designed for automotive connector housings using the TP101/TP105 contact series rated for 1.0mm² wire. Cross-reference your connector housing part number to confirm terminal compatibility.

Q: What wire gauge do these terminals accept?
A: TP101-00100 / TP105-00100 are rated for 1.0mm² (approximately 18 AWG) wire.

Q: Can I use these for power circuits?
A: Yes. 1.0mm² terminals are suitable for low-to-medium current circuits including sensor signals, relay control, and lighting circuits.
