Designed for easy assembly onto PCBs, EZ-Spring Contacts are used as grounding or shielding contacts in contact with metal frames or shields, or even for general electrical connection between PCBs or similar. Mounted in a row, the contacts can provide an excellent RFI shielding connection for metal doors or other cabinet enclosures. The contact design ensures positive contact with the mating surface, and is tolerant to both wiping and sliding action.
Individual clips are supplied in tape and reel packaging for automated placement, and reduce manufacturing costs by eliminating time-consuming secondary assembly operations. Protected tips prevent product from hooking.
Product Manager, Paul Gillam, commented: “These EZ- Spring Contacts are ideally suited for automated applications requirements including motion control units, mobile power units, environmental monitoring systems and broadcast, comms and industrial process control equipment.”
