Small crocodile clips are essential tools for electrical testing and prototyping.1 They offer a secure and easy-to-use method for connecting wires to test leads or other components.2 Here’s a description and specification of typical small black crocodile clips:
Description:
- Compact and versatile: Small crocodile clips are designed for tight spaces and delicate wires.3
- Insulated jaws: The jaws are fully insulated to prevent accidental shocks.4
- Good conductivity: The jaws are made of conductive material (often brass or copper) to ensure a reliable connection.
- Toothed grip: The jaws feature teeth to provide a secure grip on wires of various sizes.5
- Adjustable jaw opening: The jaws can be opened and closed to accommodate different wire diameters.
- Color: Black for easy identification.
Specifications:
- Length: Typically around 35mm (1.4 inches)6
- Height: Approximately 17.5mm (0.7 inches)
- Depth: About 7.5mm (0.3 inches)
- Jaw opening limit: Around 11mm (0.4 inches)7
- Material: Brass or copper jaws, plastic insulation8
- Voltage rating: Varies depending on the specific model, but typically safe for low-voltage applications.
Uses:
- Electrical testing: Attaching test leads to components for voltage, current, or resistance measurements.9
- Prototyping: Creating temporary connections between wires and components during circuit development.10
- Soldering: Holding wires in place while soldering connections.
- Other applications:
- Making temporary ground connections
- Connecting wires to battery terminals11
- Attaching wires to antennas
Additional features:
- Some small crocodile clips may have double-ended jaws, allowing them to connect two wires simultaneously.12
- Some models may include a built-in magnifying glass for easier inspection of small components.
- Crocodile clips can also be found in various colors, such as red, blue, and yellow, for easy identification in different applications.13
