Product Facts
Locking clip connectors provide reliable and secure low cost connection for a variety of applications. Designed to mate with 0.63mm x 0.63mm or 0.79mm x
1.57mm header posts, these connectors provide permanent connection integrity with quick connect/disconnect flexibility. Their self-retaining contacts allow
rapid installation without the need for additional fastening to hold contacts and/or connector housings in place. When installed, locking clip connectors are
positively locked and cannot be detached by pulling on the wires. Removal of a connector is however simply achieved by pulling directly on the housing,
deflecting the contact springs within the connector and releasing the posts. For non-housed individual contacts, disconnection is achieved through the use of
an inexpensive extraction tool.
Locking Clip Receptacle Housings
Available in single and double row variants, housings accept the range of locking clip contacts for secure connection of multiple circuits. Stackable open
ended housings permit a number of connectors to be placed side by side without loss of pitch.
Locking Clip Receptacle Contacts
Suitable for installation into Locking Clip housings or for individual wire connection, crimp snap-in contacts are offered for wire size ranges 20-30 AWG
(0.05mm
2
to 0.56mm
2
) and with a choice of gold or tin plating. Contacts provide lasting high contact to post retention and are available in both
loose piece, and reeled format for efficient volume production.
