AVX (Fountain Inn, SC) has introduced the new 58-9296 Series single position, vertical poke-home connectors to provide design engineers with a compact, and electrically and mechanically reliable alternative to hand soldering. Features include:

  • A unique, stamped and formed phosphor bronze box contact that maximizes board attachment and 18AWG wire capturing strength.
  • A design that is 23% smaller than existing vertical connector solutions.
  • The ability to fit into tight spaces between larger, densely populated plated through hole (PTH) components.
  • Tight tolerances in critical areas to minimize the potential for ingress resulting from the secondary potting or epoxy encapsulation processes that protect industrial electronics from water and other harsh environmental hazards.
  • The ability to withstand mechanical and environmental stresses associated with large, 18AWG wires in industrial applications.
  • Rated for 8A, 600VAC, and operating temperatures spanning -40°C to +130°C.
  • Lead-free, tin plating that enhances corrosion resistance and contact strength.
  • Dual solder tabs that effectively anchor the connector onto PCBs.
  • An integral molded flange with a vacuum pick-up point for automated SMT placement.
  • RoHS compliance.
  • Rated for three-cycle durability, allowing for up to two wire replacements over the product’s lifetime.
  • Packaged on tape and reel.
