Anglia Components is directing engineers looking for connectors that combine space-saving design, robust performance, and long-term durability towards HIROSE’s KM32 Series Wire-to-Board connectors.

They are engineered to meet the toughest demands of automotive and industrial applications.

Designed with precision and reliability at its core, the KM32 Series delivers exceptional durability and space-saving benefits, making it the ideal choice for automotive and industrial environments where every millimetre counts.

Featuring a 2.0mm pitch and 0.5mm contact tab size, these connectors enable significant device downsizing without compromising strength or stability.

The connectors’ housing incorporates an integral lance design, providing outstanding contact retention strength of 40N minimum – all without the need for a retainer. This ensures secure cable routing and robust performance, even in the harshest operating conditions.

Featuring a 1.6mm effective mating length and a dual-point contact system, the KM32 series guarantees stable electrical performance and secure engagement.

A reinforced centre lock prevents incomplete mating, mis-insertion, and lock damage, delivering peace of mind in demanding applications while also maintaining strong contact retention with a compact footprint.

Available in both straight and right-angle interface types, as well as single-row (2-8 contacts) and double-row (12-24 contacts) variations, the connectors offer a wide range of design flexibility. The crimp contacts are optimised for 22 AWG cables. The housing and contact materials, including PPS and PA66 resins with copper alloy contact, are engineered to deliver long-term durability.

The KM32 series is suited to a wide range of applications including automotive electronic control modules, monitoring devices, sensors, control units, and other compact electronics that require space-saving and high-performance connectivity.

Authorised distributor Anglia Components is offering customers free samples of the KM32 series Wire-to-Board connectors from HIROSE.
