All connector bodies are molded from PA66 nylon for mechanical strength and environmental resistance; the solid contacts are nickel‑plated for improved conductivity and corrosion protection. Included accessories such as wedgelocks, red sealing plugs and a compact removal tool make the system easier to assemble and service in field or shop environments.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat exactly is included and how many contacts are supplied?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ST6484 kit provides a selection of DTM connector shells in 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 12 cavity configurations, along with wedgelocks and seal plugs to secure unused cavities. You also get 54 pairs of size-20 solid male and female contacts suitable for 20–22 AWG wire, and a Deutsch-style contact removal tool. Everything is designed to let you build multiple connectors without sourcing parts separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDTM connector shells: 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 cavities (PA66 nylon)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e54 pairs of solid male and female size-20 contacts (20–22 AWG)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWedgelocks, red sealing plugs and seal inserts for unused cavities\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact contact removal tool compatible with 16–22 AWG stamped contacts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do the terminals perform and what are they made of?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit’s solid terminals are nickel‑plated for wear resistance and stable conductivity, making them suitable for repeated mating cycles and harsh environments. Their solid construction simplifies crimping compared with stamped contacts, producing reliable mechanical and electrical connections when used with an appropriate 4‑indent crimping tool. Nickel plating helps minimize corrosion where exposure to moisture or road salts is a concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid (not stamped) size‑20 contacts for consistent crimps\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNickel plating for corrosion and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRecommended crimp method: professional 4‑indent crimper for best results\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAre these DTM connectors waterproof and suitable for outdoor use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe connector housings are injection‑molded from PA66 nylon and paired with silicone-style seals and red sealing plugs to block unused cavities. Combined, these elements provide protection against moisture and contaminants in many outdoor, automotive, and industrial applications. As with any sealed connector, proper assembly and intact seals are required to maintain environmental resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePA66 nylon housings resist heat, chemicals, and impact\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSeal plugs and silicone seals protect unused cavities\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWaterproof performance depends on correct assembly and undamaged seals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I service or remove contacts without damaging the connector?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe compact plastic contact removal tool included is designed to release stamped and solid contacts safely without harming the wire insulation, seal or housing. Its shape lets you depress the terminal retention tang and extract the contact smoothly, which speeds repairs and reduces the risk of connector replacement.
