The UL recognised .140 MATEN-LOK connectors with 3.5 mm diameter pins and sockets, have a 25 A current carrying capacity and are capable of accepting wire with insulation diameters up to 4.5 mm. Both pins and sockets are equipped with dual locking lances, which assure positive contact retention when installed in the housings. The seam of the socket is S-shaped, which allows an easy mating and unmating of the contacts. Special contacts of copper-laminated steel and high temperature-resistant housing (up to 105 °C) are used in applications with high temperatures and high currents for example ovens.
