Overview

The TE Connectivity 66099-4 Pin Contact (SKU 66099-4) is a precision-engineered Size 16 brass contact designed for reliable power and signal transmission in industrial and electronic applications. Part of the AMP Type III+ series, this pin contact features a crimp termination method optimized for 18–16 AWG (0.8–1.4 mm²) wire sizes, ensuring secure and durable electrical connections. The contact body is constructed from high-quality brass with precious metal plating (tin or gold options) to enhance conductivity and corrosion resistance, critical for maintaining signal integrity in demanding environments. This Size 16 contact is engineered to retrofit into existing AMP connector housings, including CPC (Circular Plastic Connector), CMC (Circular Metal Connector), G Series, M Series, Metrimate Square Grid, and Drawer Connectors. The precision-formed design includes a stainless steel retention spring for mechanical stability and a beryllium copper louvered band for secure wire retention. Key applications include automotive wiring harnesses, industrial automation systems, telecommunications equipment, and power distribution units where dependable electrical interconnects are essential. The 66099-4 is compatible with standard AMP hand tools (e.g., Part No. 601967-1) and pneumatic crimping systems (e.g., 626 Pneumatic Tool System with adapter kit). For field repairs, the PRO-CRIMPER II hand tool (Part No. 539972-1) is recommended. The contact meets stringent performance requirements for durability and electrical reliability in harsh operating conditions.
