Ideal Industries 83-9521 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire size does the IDEAL 83-9521 female disconnect crimp onto?
The 83-9521 is sized for 16-14 AWG stranded or solid copper wire. Its barrel has internal serrations that bite the strands to resist pull-out and lower resistance at the joint, and the entry is expanded so a range of insulation diameters will seat inside the sleeve rather than stopping at the mouth. If you are terminating 22-18 or 12-10 conductors, you need a different gauge range terminal.
2) Is the IDEAL 83-9521 terminal suitable for damp or corrosive environments?
The barrel is tin-plated brass, which resists corrosion better than bare copper at the crimp, and the body is vinyl insulated. The vinyl sleeve is a general-purpose insulation, not a heat-shrink or adhesive-lined seal, so it does not seal the crimp against water ingress. For a wet location you would want a heat-shrink sealed disconnect.
3) What keeps the barrel from splitting when I crimp these hard?
The 83-9521 uses butted seam construction, meaning the rolled barrel seam closes edge to edge so it will not spring open under maximum crimp pressure. There is also a shouldered barrel inside the insulation that stops the wire at the right depth and positions the terminal in the crimp die, which helps avoid off-center crimps on repetitive panel work.
4) Do I need a special crimp tool for 16-14 AWG vinyl insulated disconnects?
Use an insulated-terminal crimper on the 16-14 AWG (blue) nest. The 83-9521 crimps over the vinyl sleeve, so a non-insulated open-barrel die or a plain plier crimp will cut the insulation and give an unreliable joint. The shoulder inside the barrel sets wire depth for you, so strip, bottom the conductor, and crimp in the matching die.
5) Is the IDEAL 83-9521 sold individually or in a box?
It is a boxed quantity, not a single piece, so it suits MRO stock, control panel builds, or appliance and HVAC service work where you are terminating many low-voltage leads. Order by the IDEAL part number 83-9521 for the .110 tab, 16-14 AWG female disconnect.
