Harwin has expanded its EZ-BoardWare range of surface mount PCB hardware products with the introduction of a new SMT Board Socket which enables considerable cost savings. Harwin's innovative EZ-BoardWare family of surface mount products improve manufacturing flexibility, reduce manufacturing costs save space and improve in-field maintenance.

EZ-SMT Board Sockets are a much cheaper alternative to turned contact PCB sockets for less demanding applications, and in common with all EZ-BoardWare products, are designed for automated production processes, so they withstand surface mount assembly and come in standard tape and reel packaging.

Comments Product Manager, Paul Gillam: “It’s important to choose the correct device to match the application. Harsh operating conditions may mean that turned sockets are required; however our EZ-SMT Board Sockets meet most requirements at a fraction of the cost.”
