The signal conductors (of the Ag versions) have always been built by fine silver and their construction already was based on the minimal mass principle. New thing is that the base body of the spade now represents a nearly metal-free construction to become a 100% nextgen connector. You will certainly enjoy a much more detailed and spacious sound performance of your HiFi set!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe key of the superb quality of this spade lies in the patented* Sandwich design of its contact fork: Elastomer oscillation dampers eliminate airborne noise and mechanical vibrations as well as magnetostrictions. This ensures almost total suppression of contact microphonics, and there is no interfering ancillary noise. The fracture resistance of the connection is improved at the same time. The sandwich design of the contact forks with elastomer inserted in a steel cap generates high and uniform contact pressure while minimising transition resistance. Four punched contact points on the bottom of the fork ensure precision contact. The quality of signal transmission is markedly improved, particularly with high currents or small voltages. The surface of the silver conductor is protected against oxidation by a platinum surface coating to underpin the low transition resistance levels in the long term.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe spade is connected to the cable by means of crimping. The two Torx screws with fine thread are making for a reliable connection with high tensile strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe plug elements are fully insulated and meet the CE and IEC safety requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* EP Patent no. 1 066 660, US patent no. 6,319,078\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eHigh-current spade\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eSignal conductor made of fine silver\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eSandwich spade for constantly high contact pressure\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eElastomer oscillation damper for superb vibration damping and fracture resistance\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eCE and IEC compliant\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eCrimping using the WBT double Torx screw system\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eFork widths:\u003cbr\u003eWBT-0661 Ag 6 mm fork (1\/4 inch)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eWBT-0681 Ag 8 mm fork (1\/3 Inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eConductor cross section (max.): 10 mm² (7 AWG)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eConnection technology: crimping\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eIdentification: red, white or black\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eRecommended tools:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eTorx T6 wrench WBT-0488 (supplied with each end consumer package)\u003cbr\u003eTorque screwdriver WBT-0481 for professional OEM mounting\u003cbr\u003eCrimping pliers WBT-0403 also see crimping set WBT-0411\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WBT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43639331225778,"sku":"WBT 0681AG","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/8122\/2322\/files\/wbt0681agBlack.jpg?v=1775500317","url":"https:\/\/www.performanceaudio.com\/products\/wbt-0681-ag-nextgen-5-16-spade-plug-made-from-fine-silver-single-black","provider":"Performance Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
