DTHD Series

Hold the connector with the rear grommet facing you.
Push contact straight into contact cavity until a click is heard/felt. A slight tug will ensure the contact is inserted correctly.

Hold the connector so that the rear grommet is facing you.
Using the correct size plastic removal tool, snap the tool over the wire.
Slide the tool along the wire into the cavity until it engages the contact and resistance is felt. NOTE: Do not twist or insert tool at an angle.
Pull the contact and wire assembly out of the connector.

Begin with a stripped wire.
Wire seal grommets are required in order to maintain an environmental seal. Slide the wire seal into place on the stripped wire.
To crimp Ø8mm contacts, use a hex shaped crimp per NFC 20.130 standard. For full specifications, refer to DEUTSCH drawing 8925-003-0000.
