Installation Instructions
SAE AS50151, AC, ACA and GT Series, Containing Crimp Contacts.
Amphenol, SAE AS50151, AC Threaded, ACA Reverse Bayonet and GT Reverse Bayonet incorporate
MIL-STD-1651 insert arrangements as well as some special arrangements. Crimp type contacts in
size 4/0,1/0,0,4,8,12,16 and 16S are available for use in these insert arrangements. This publication
contains information for proper crimping, insertion and removal of crimp contacts as well as applicable
tool information.
1. Cleaning:
Inserts contacts and inside surfaces of shells must be kept free of oil, grease and dirt
throughout the installation procedure. Use a clean cloth moistened with Isopropyl Alcohol.
Do Not use Any Other Lubricant or Cleaning Chemical than Isopropyl Alcohol
2. Cable Wire and Preparation:
a. Provide for sufficient wire slack to permit easy installation of the connector. Using Table 1 as a guide,
cut the wires to length and strip the insulation the appropriate distance from the end. Use extreme
care to avoid nicking or cutting wire strands. (Figure1 & 2)
b. Check to be sure strands of wire are not separated. If necessary, reform by lightly twisting the
strands together

3. Crimping:
a. Insert the stripped end of wire into the contact wire-well and apply slight pressure until it is positively
bottomed. Visually check to assure the wire strands are visible in the inspection hole provided in the
wire well. (Figure 3)
b. Using the appropriate crimping tool and preset the tool in accordance with instructions provided with
the tool. Table IV.
c. Special wire wells may require a reduction sleeve to obtain the appropriate tensile strength, insert the
reduction sleeve into the wire well prior to inserting the wire. Table III lists the applicable wire well
adapters for the various wire and contact combinations.
d. Insert the contact and wire into the tool as far as possible, then close the tool handles. This took has
a built in safety feature in that the handles cannot be reopened until the crimping cycle is completed,
refer to Table II for tensile strength data. Visually inspect the crimp. Wires should be visible in the
inspection hole (Figure 4)

4. Installing Contacts
e. Place the connector on mating shell or connector for greater stability, if you are not using a fixture make
sure to allow clearance on the mating side of the connector to allow the guide pins to go through.
f. Lubricate the rear face of the insert and cavities with Isopropyl Alcohol Only.
g. Using guide pins as needed, with Firm even pressure push the contact straight down until the contact is
seated in position, personnel inserting the contact will normally feel the contact reach it’s fully seated
position, it is recommended to start a the center of an insert arrangement and work outwards toward the
edge, if you are terminating a Plug connector make sure the coupling nut is assembled onto the plug shell
before insert the contacts. (Figure 8)
h. The Arbor Press can be used for inserting size 4 or larger contacts, when the Arbor Press method of
insertion is used, contacts and attached wire should be placed in the predetermined insertion tip and
inserted in their applicable insert cavity, positive stop setting of the Arbor Press will control the contact
insertion depth.
i. Visually check the mating ends of the connector to be sure all contacts are properly inserted to the
same depth.
j. Fill all the empty cavities with non terminated contacts and grommet with sealing plugs to maintain the
sealing integrity of the connector.
k. After the installation and inspection of contacts has been completed, slide all rear accessories forward
and tighten with 11-6147-1 pliers.
l. Torque specifications are listed in L-725-3. (Figure 9)
m. Removing Contacts for Replacement, Loosen all rear accessories and unscrew them from the connector
shell, slide all parts back along the wire, determine the appropriate removal tool (Table IV) and push back
the contact through the mating side of the connector and remove.

7. Cable and Wire Preparation:
a. Make Sure the stripped conductors are clean, straight and strands are tight together.
b. Apply a good grade of Rosin Alcohol to the stripped ends, this can be done by dipping the bare ends in
flux half way to the insulation, shake off excess flux.
c. Pre-Tin approximately 50% of the exposed conductor end. This can be achieved using a solder pot or
wire solder a good grade of 60/40 Tin-Lead solder is recommended. Solder pot temperature should be
500° to 550° F, avoid melting, burning or scorching the insulation. Shake off excess solder.
d. Wire wells of size 12 and 16 contacts are Pre-Filled, larger sizes are Pre-Tinned.
8. Soldering:
a. Either a Probe Type resistance soldering equipment or a soldering iron is suitable for soldering
conductors to contacts. When using an Iron it may be necessary to re-shape the tip to provide access to
dense contact arrangements. To obtain the greatest amount of heat transfer use the recommended iron
size in Figure 10.
b. Position the connector so the cut away sides of the wire well are facing up, add support to the wire being
attached to relief strain from the connector shell and insert.
c. It is recommended to start soldering at the bottom row working across then up.
d. To avoid a cold joint maintain heat until solder both in the solder well and on the conductor is
completely liquid.
e. Careful not overheat the bonded in insert, do not hold the contact at elevated temperature any longer
than necessary.
f. While holding the wire steady and properly aligned remove the heat source and allow the solder to cool
until completely solid, permitting the wire to move while the solder is in plastic state will result in
crystallization and a weak joint.
g. Remove any Excess solder from the wire well.
h. After the conductors have all been soldered, proceed to slide back and assemble the rear accessories.
i. To remove unsolder the conductors.

Torque Values - Electrical Connectors
1. Introduction: This publication contains minimum and maximum
torque values recommended by Amphenol Corporation, Sidney,
New York 13838.
5. Torques values are listed by thread sizes in Table I below and
Tables II, III and IV on the next page. We recommend reviewing
applicable connector catalogs for mating and accessory thread
diameters for each connector shell size. Amphenol catalogs are
available on-line at www.amphenol-aerospace.com or www.
amphenol-industrial.com.
2. Maximum torque values are primarily governed by strength
of material used to fabricate threaded components. Maximum
values listed in this publication were computed to protect
threads and other bearing surfaces which could be damaged by
excessive torque.
NOTE: See torque value notes (6, 7, 8) following Table I for
accessories having three threads or less.
3. Minimum torque vales were computed to assure proper mating
of connectors and/or accessories (when threaded areas are
properly lubricated). Torque values are shown as follows: Table
I for connectors with single start threads, Table III for connectors
with double stub threads, Table IV for MIL-DTL-26482 bayonet
coupling, and Table V for MIL-DTL-38999 Series I & III connectors.
6. The torque values listed in Table I are for UN (Handbook H-28)
threads. These values apply to connector’s coupling nut, jam nut,
cable clam, backshell or accessories.
7. Column “A” pf Table I lists the minimum and maximum values
for threads on aluminum die cast parts such as MS or MS
Modified connectors.
4. Metal to metal sealing of mated parts should occur where a
flat gasket is used for an end seal. In some instances, when a
cable accessory of MIL-C-85049/1, /2, /41 and /42 type clamp
is used with maximum diameter cable, a metal to metal seating
may not occur on the initial tightening. A second tightening is
therefore necessary after cable has been allowed to cold flow
(approximately 12 hours).
8. Column “B” of Table I lists the minimum ab maximum values for
threads on extruded or machined aluminum and steel parts. The
torque value for hex mounting nuts on all jam nut receptacles is
listed in column “A” of Table I. The hex nuts are machined but
the torque value is reduced due to the limited amount of threads.
(Continues with NOTES on next page).
