PRECI-DIP Press Release

PRECI-DIP’s new line of spring-loaded contacts with an integrated multi-finger clip

16 March 2023
Preci-Dip’s contacts carry 5 A and are reliable even when exposed to intensive shocks and vibration.

Preci Dip Unique Clip Technology

With experience in spring-loaded contact manufacturing, PRECI-DIP has developed a patented design with an integrated multi-finger clip, providing high reliability and electrical continuity. This solution ensures low, stable electrical resistance without micro-discontinuities, even when the piston is moving or exposed to intensive shocks and vibration.

Preci-Dip’s range of SMT spring contacts can carry up to 5 A with a maximum +30°C temperature rise. An outside diameter of 1.83 mm (0.077”) means these contacts can be arranged on a space-saving pitch of 2.54 mm (0.100”) pitch. These spring-loaded contacts facilitate blind mating and are more tolerant in misaligned and non-coplanar mating conditions.
