Rectangular Connectors - Spring Loaded

Rectangular connectors with spring-load contacts are an important component of many electronic devices. They provide electrical connectivity and offer a secure, reliable connection point for any type of soldered or crimped connections. Commonly referred to as spring-loaded contacts, these connectors are used in a broad range of applications including circuit boards, wiring harnesses, and other electrical devices.

857-10-020-10-051000 Application Field and Working Principle

The 857-10-020-10-051000 is a rectangular contact connector for use in a variety of applications. It is well suited for aerospace and other high-reliability applications. The 857-10-020-10-051000 is made from corrosion-resistant gold plated alloys, making them a safe and reliable choice. The 857-10-020-10-051000\'s spring-loaded contacts feature a self-serving design, meaning that when used in a floating electrical application they remain in contact with one another at all times and ensure reliable electrical connections. These contacts also provide flexibility when it comes to electrical configurations; they can be moved to different positions or changed out if needed.

When considering the use of the 857-10-020-10-051000 in an application it is also important to understand the operating principle of the spring-loaded contacts. The contacts are typically designed to have two different compression rates; the first is a relatively low “spring rate” which allows the contact to engage and remain in contact with the circuit board during assembly or when there is movement within the system. The second rate is much higher and is designed to hold the contacts securely within the connection during high-vibration applications. When electrical current is passed through the contacts, they will necessarily vibrate due to electrical arcing as they supply power to the device, but this movement and slight arcing will not affect the reliability of the contact.

The 857-10-020-10-051000 is a reliable, versatile contact system and is a great choice for any application where reliable electrical connections are needed. Its self-serving design and two different compression rates make it ideal for high-reliability applications, and it\'s easy to install and use. Whether it\'s for aerospace, automotive, industrial, or any other application, the 857-10-020-10- 051000 is a reliable choice.
