Zierick's wire gripper, when quality and reliability prevail

08 April 2016

Apart from de 1286 insulation piercing terminal, Zierick also offers other smart WtB connectors that offer a perfect alternative for the traditional soldering process. Take the 1262 & 1301 wire gripper. As the name already indicates, the Zierick wire gripper actually ‘grabs’ the wire upon entry and fixes it perfectly into position. Also the wire gripper has been designed for processing through an automated process. With the help of a pick and place machine you are assured of a quick lead time. This saves considerable time. Even more important is the fact that the wire gripper strongly improves the consistent quality and reliability of your application in relation to traditional soldering. Because of a high pressure contact area the wire gripper ensures a reliable gas tight connection.

The wire grippers 1262 & 1301 are available for horizontal or vertical assembly, both loose or on tape & reel.
