SAE J858_201105

Blade terminals listed in this SAE Recommended Practice may be used for terminating wire ends, or for terminating circuits on devices other than wire. When blade terminals are used for terminating wire, the temper of the terminals shall be sufficiently soft to permit the terminals being assembled to the wire and not show any fracture or cracks which would impair the strength of the assembly. Terminals may be applied to wire by crimping, welding, swaging, soldering, or any combination at conductor grip.
