Why Choose the Ilme CCFF0.5 Female Iron Crimp Contact?
The Ilme CCFF0.5 is a precision female turned iron crimp contact from the Ilme CC series, designed for compatible Ilme industrial multipole connector inserts. Rated at 16 A, this specialist contact is intended for 0.5 mm² conductors and forms part of Ilme's dedicated iron and constantan contact range for thermocouple connection applications.
Unlike conventional copper-alloy silver- or gold-plated contacts, the CCFF0.5 uses iron contact material. Ilme identifies its CC iron contacts for Type J thermocouples compliant with EN 60584-1, making the CCFF0.5 suitable for temperature measurement circuits where the appropriate thermocouple contact material must be maintained through the detachable connector interface.
The CCFF0.5 is designed for 0.5 mm² / 20 AWG conductors and uses crimp termination for secure conductor attachment. Ilme specifies a 7.5 mm stripping length and recommends using its approved crimping tools to achieve the intended termination quality.

Reliable Iron Contact for Type J Thermocouple Connections
Thermocouple circuits require appropriate conductor and contact materials to preserve the intended thermoelectric characteristics through connection points. Ilme therefore provides dedicated constantan and iron CC series contacts for Type J thermocouple applications, allowing temperature measurement circuits to pass through compatible detachable industrial multipole connectors.
The CCFF0.5 provides the female iron contact for a 0.5 mm² conductor and is designed to be crimped using suitable tooling before installation in a compatible connector insert. Correct conductor preparation and the use of Ilme-approved crimping tools help achieve a secure and repeatable termination for industrial temperature measurement assemblies.
Typical Applications
- Type J thermocouple connection circuits.
- Industrial temperature measurement systems.
- Process control and instrumentation equipment.
- Industrial machinery temperature monitoring.
- Compatible Ilme multipole connector assemblies.
- Pre-assembled thermocouple cable harnesses.
