Why Choose the ILME CIFA0.5 Female Crimp Contact?
The ILME CIFA0.5 is a precision-manufactured female crimp contact designed for compatible ILME CI series multipole connector systems. Rated at 5 A, this turned contact provides a dependable electrical interface for signal and low-current connections used in industrial machinery, automation, control equipment and other heavy-duty connector applications.
Manufactured from copper alloy with silver-plated contact surfaces, the CIFA0.5 combines reliable conductivity with the mechanical durability required for industrial connector assemblies. It accepts conductors from 0.33–0.52 mm², corresponding to AWG 22–20, allowing secure crimp termination without soldering.
The contact is designed with a 4 mm conductor stripping length and approximately 1.12 mm conductor slot diameter for its specified wire range. When correctly crimped using suitable ILME-approved tooling and installed in a compatible insert, the CIFA0.5 provides a secure, repeatable connection suitable for professional industrial wiring.

Reliable Crimp Connections for Industrial Connectors
Crimp contacts such as the ILME CIFA0.5 provide a secure mechanical and electrical connection between individual conductors and multipole connector inserts. Correct crimping compresses the contact around the conductor to create a consistent connection without solder, helping simplify assembly while providing the reliability required by industrial equipment.
The CIFA0.5 is one of several CI series contact sizes designed for different conductor cross-sections. Selecting the correct contact for the cable size and using appropriate crimping tooling are important for achieving the specified electrical and mechanical performance of the completed connector assembly.
Typical Applications
- Industrial multipole connector assemblies.
- Automation and machine control systems.
- Electrical control panels and equipment.
