Delphi Female Lamp Socket Wedge Terminal 18-20 AWG – Sealed Lighting Circuit Crimp Contact
The Delphi Female Lamp Socket Wedge Terminal for 18-20 AWG wire (12066638) is a sealed wedge-type crimp terminal designed for automotive lamp socket connector applications. Used in lighting harness assemblies, instrument cluster circuits, and auxiliary lamp wiring in motorsport and performance vehicles across Norway, Sweden, and Denmark, this terminal provides a reliable sealed termination in compact lamp socket housings.
Wedge Terminal Design
Wedge terminals use a tapered, wedge-shaped body that locks positively into the lamp socket housing during assembly. Once inserted, the wedge geometry creates a secure, vibration-resistant mechanical lock without relying solely on a retention clip. This design is particularly effective in high-vibration environments such as rally car instrument panels, race car lighting circuits, and performance vehicle dashboard assemblies where standard terminal retention may not be adequate.
