If you crimp a terminal like this cut it off and start over. This is not a good crimp and could even be unsafe. The strain relief jaw even split the insulation open.


On of the reason I use AMP PIDG terminals almost exclusively, when using insulated terminals, is because the seam on these is brazed. Note how even with this horrible crimp the seam held together.


A lot of three piece terminals do not feature a brazed seam. This is one of the reasons why you will find AMP PIDG terminals on US Military fighter jets and attack helicopters but you won't find too many other brands of insulated terminals in the same application.
