About the 900-197 Contact, Size 8 Crimp Pin
The 900-197 Contact #8 Crimp PIN is a size 8 power contact in pin (male) form with crimp termination, listed by electronic-component distributors as an Amphenol part. Size 8 is the largest of the standard contact sizes used in MIL-DTL-38999-style circular connectors, and distributor data for the 900-197 gives a crimp wire size of 8 AWG and a current rating of 60 A, with gold plating over the copper-alloy body. It is used in the power cavities of MIL-DTL-38999 Series I, III and IV-type connectors, mating with the corresponding 900-217 socket contact, and is installed with heavy-gauge crimp tooling such as the M300T with the appropriate positioner. Contacts are supplied loose for crimping onto prepared conductors before insertion into the connector insert.
