BOSCH EV1 Terminals (10 x Male) are specialized 2.8mm flat-tab electrical contacts designed for the "Male" side of the Bosch Jetronic, Minitimer, or Junior Power Timer (JPT) connector series. These terminals are the industry standard for automotive signal transmission and power delivery.
Technical Specifications
Quantity: 10 pieces per pack.
Terminal Type: 2.8mm Male Blade/Tab.
Material: High-conductivity brass or copper alloy.
Plating: Typically Tin-plated to resist corrosion and oxidation in harsh engine environments.
Wire Compatibility: Designed for automotive wire gauges ranging from 0.5 mm² to 1.5 mm² (20–16 AWG).
Temperature Range: Rated for engine bay temperatures from -40°C to +125°C.
Primary Applications
These male terminals are essential for constructing the "device side" or "adapter side" of a connection:
Adapter Harnesses: Used to create conversion leads (e.g., adapting an EV1 harness to fit newer EV6/EV14 injectors).
Extension Leads: Building custom-length extensions for sensors or actuators.
Diagnostic Equipment: Fabricating "breakout" leads for testing injector pulse and sensor voltage.
Component Manufacturing: Installing into male housings for fuel pumps, oil pressure switches, and temperature sensors.
Installation & Best Practices
Crimping Tool: Requires a professional "F-Crimp" (Type B) automotive crimping tool to ensure a secure mechanical and electrical bond.
Weatherproofing: Should be used in conjunction with single wire seals (grommets) when inserted into a male housing to maintain an IP67 waterproof rating.
Compatibility: These terminals fit into standard Bosch male housings such as the 1 287 013 003.
