171630-1 is a socket contact for the Econoseal J Series sealed connector system, engineered for reliable wire-to-board connections in automotive environments. The contact is manufactured from brass with pre-tin plating and accommodates wire sizes from 0.2 to 0.5 mm² (AWG 24–20), with an insulation diameter range of 1.4–2.4 mm. It is designed to work with single wire seals (part number 178210-1, style B) and cavity plugs, providing waterproof protection against moisture, dust, corrosive gases, and liquids in extreme automotive conditions. This contact is commonly used in sensor wiring within motor hoods and electrical control systems operating under unfavorable climatic conditions, where sealed housing protection is essential to prevent premature contact degradation.
