Alligator clips typically have fine, serrated teeth for gripping small wires. Crocodile clips are generally larger, more robust, and designed for gripping larger terminals or busbars.
Test Clips - Alligator, Crocodile, Heavy Duty Component Intelligence
Engineered for reliable, low-resistance contact in demanding test and measurement applications.
What are Test Clips - Alligator, Crocodile, Heavy Duty components?
Heavy-duty test clips are essential for creating temporary, low-resistance electrical connections. Selection hinges on current capacity, jaw geometry for specific contact points, and insulation ratings required for safety in high-voltage or high-current test setups.
How to Choose Test Clips - Alligator, Crocodile, Heavy Duty Components
Select clips based on the physical contact surface and the electrical environment of your test bench.
Current Capacity
Ensure the clip's current rating exceeds your maximum test load to prevent heating and voltage drop.
Jaw Geometry
Choose alligator jaws for fine wires and crocodile jaws for larger terminals or busbars.
Insulation Class
Verify the CAT rating and insulation material to ensure safety during high-voltage measurements.
Material & Plating
Use nickel-plated steel for durability or gold/copper plating for low-resistance, high-precision signals.
Connection Type
Match the termination style—solder, screw, or banana plug—to your existing test lead infrastructure.
