Series
Contacts come from our well known
TRIM-TRIO
®
Series.
They are precision solid machined crimp
snap-in pins and sockets for heavy duty
top performance requirements.
Springs on both contacts are made of
spring-tempered, heat treated, beryllium
copper.
The socket inner spring supplies high
contact pressure to ensure low-resistance
contact between pin and socket. The soc-
ket contact features closed entry to prevent
probe damage. Crimp barrels have insula-
tion grips for vibration support and are
provided with a cable stop and inspection
hole.
