IWS-100DT: solid pin and socket refills
50 pins plus 50 sockets: 100 individual Size 16 solid contacts. This is a refill pack, not 50 complete multi-pin connectors. Housings, wedgelocks, cavity plugs and tools are separate.
Confirm the supplied wire range before ordering
The previous listing mixed a 20–16 AWG title with a 14 AWG description and a 0462-209-16141 socket reference. Confirm the actual supplied contact part number and barrel range with us before selecting wire or tooling. A green stripe or “Size 16” marking alone is not enough to resolve the shipment specification.
For a confirmed 20–16 AWG Size 16 solid contact, consider IWD-1620. For a confirmed 14 AWG Size 16 solid contact, consider IWD-16, verifying the contact/tool setup. These are conditional choices, not two interchangeable tools. Do not use a stamped-contact open-barrel crimper.
Selection checks that prevent the wrong purchase
Size 16 is a contact-system designation, not 16 AWG. The contact barrel must match your conductor, while the rear seal must match the insulation outside diameter. DT, DTM and DTP housings are not interchangeable just because their names are similar.
These assortments suit compatible vehicle accessory, motorcycle, off-road equipment and workshop harness projects. Confirm circuit loading, temperature, mounting and environmental requirements for the exact components. Do not treat a family rating as certification of this kit or a completed harness. Piece counts include individual contacts, housings, locks and accessories; they do not equal finished connector pairs.
How to assemble a DT connector
- Disconnect power and record the circuit pinout. Match DT housing keying, cavity count, pin/socket type and wire-seal diameter.
- Strip the wire to the contact specification without cutting strands. Do not pre-tin a conductor intended for this crimp termination.
- Position the solid contact in the matching indent crimper and use the specified contact/wire setting. Inspect a sample before making a batch.
- Insert contacts straight through the rear seal until retained. Check retention gently, then seat the correctly oriented wedgelock. Fit the specified sealing plugs in unused cavities.
- Latch the mating housings, support the harness and verify continuity and pinout. A latch click or continuity reading does not prove crimp strength or sealing.
Follow the DT connector installation guide and the solid-versus-stamped tool guide.
Refill buying checklist
Record pin and socket part numbers separately, conductor gauge, insulation diameter and housing family. Do not copy a “0–24 A” catalog category into your circuit design: it is not a rating for this refill pack.
For a fit check, email sales@iwiss.com with the contact or lug part number, wire gauge, insulation diameter, mating connector and clear photos. For repeat workshop orders, also include quantities and your validated tool setting.
