Connector Harting Stifteinsatz Käfigzugfederansch 09 14 005 2616 — insert for cage clamp contacts

Harting Stifteinsatz Käfigzugfederansch 09 14 005 2616 is an insert for cage-clamp contacts designed to provide a reliable electrical interface where spring-type terminations are required. The insert accepts male pins and mates with compatible Harting housings to create a compact connector module suitable for signal and low to medium power applications in industrial and automation environments. Its construction focuses on secure contact force, vibration resistance and simplified field wiring.

Advantages

The insert offers stable mechanical and electrical contact through cage-clamp technology, eliminating the need for screw tightening during installation. Its spring termination enables fast, tool-free conductor insertion and reduces maintenance requirements by maintaining consistent contact force over time. Designed for compatibility with Harting connector systems, the insert supports a robust connection in environments subject to vibration and thermal cycling while keeping the connector footprint compact.

Suitable for

• Signal wiring in control cabinets and automation equipment
• Power distribution for low to medium current circuits
• Industrial machinery where vibration-resistant contacts are required
• Retrofit and field wiring installations requiring quick conductor termination

Key specifications

• Termination type: cage-clamp (spring) contact insert
• Contact form: pin insert compatible with male pin contacts
• Application: signal and low/medium power electrical connections
• Mounting: designed for mating with Harting connector housings and modules
• Durability: designed for repeated insertions and mechanical resilience under vibration
• Wire connection: tool-free conductor insertion with retained contact force

How to use

Insert the contact insert into the compatible Harting housing following the connector system’s assembly instructions. Prepare conductors by stripping insulation to the recommended length and insert conductors directly into the cage-clamp terminals until they are retained by the spring mechanism. Verify secure contact by a gentle pull test on each conductor and ensure correct pin alignment when mating with the complementary connector half. Use appropriate mating housings and covers to protect connections from mechanical strain and contaminants.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use conductors within the recommended cross-sectional ranges and strip lengths specified by Harting for cage-clamp terminations. Avoid overloading the contacts beyond their intended current capacity and protect the connector assembly from excessive mechanical stress, corrosive environments or prolonged exposure to high humidity. Follow periodic inspection procedures to confirm contact integrity in critical applications.
