SPRING LOADED CONNECTORS

A spring-loaded connector is a type of electrical connector that uses a spring mechanism to maintain continuous pressure between the connector’s contacts and the surfaces they interface with. This ensures a reliable electrical connection even in environments with vibrations or movements. Spring-loaded connectors are commonly used in applications where maintaining consistent contact is crucial, such as in portable devices, circuit boards, and situations where a flexible or temporary connection is needed.

The key feature of these connectors is that the contact pins or pads are typically under constant compression from a spring, which compensates for any physical changes such as misalignment or expansion, thus improving the longevity and performance of the connection. They are often referred to as “spring contacts” or “compression connectors.”

• Magnets increase the reliability of the connection and provide polarization
• Spring-loaded contacts maintain connection in environments with vibration to provide stable current flow
• Precision machined to ensure high quality, low resistance, compliant connector giving it the edge over other technologies
• A reliable, precision-made interconnect solution ideal for a number of demanding application requirements in the fast-moving world of electronic interconnects
• Convenient for consumer electronics and in test environments where a large number of mating cycles are required (Up to 30,000 mating cycles)
• Assembled into high-temperature thermoplastic to form connector arrays
• High-quality “tear away” design prevents damage caused by unintended disconnection
• Magnets pull the connectors together and the user can pull them apart resulting in a quick mating and un-mating process
• More convenient than standard pogo connectors
