Why Choose the Ilme CCMC0.3 Male Constantan Crimp Contact?
The Ilme CCMC0.3 is a specialist male turned constantan crimp contact from the Ilme CC series, designed for compatible Ilme industrial multipole connector inserts. Rated at 16 A, it is specifically intended for 0.3 mm² conductors and provides the constantan contact element required for suitable thermocouple connection applications.
Unlike standard silver- or gold-plated connector contacts, the CCMC0.3 is manufactured from constantan (Cu-Ni). Ilme specifies its complementary constantan and iron CC contacts for Type J thermocouples compliant with EN 60584-1, enabling thermocouple circuits to be routed through detachable multipole industrial connector systems while using the appropriate contact materials.
The CCMC0.3 is designed for 0.3 mm² / 22 AWG conductors. Ilme specifies a conductor slot diameter of 1.1 mm and a stripping length of 7.5 mm, with the use of Ilme-approved crimping tools recommended for correct and repeatable termination.

Reliable Constantan Contact for Type J Thermocouple Connections
Thermocouple measurement circuits depend on the correct combination of conductor and connection materials. Ilme therefore provides dedicated constantan and iron CC series contacts for Type J thermocouple applications, allowing suitable temperature measurement circuits to pass through compatible detachable industrial multipole connectors.
The CCMC0.3 provides the male constantan contact for 0.3 mm² conductors. When used with the corresponding iron contact, compatible Ilme connector components and correctly prepared thermocouple wiring, it provides a practical connection solution for industrial temperature measurement and process instrumentation systems.
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.
