D-Sub, D-Shaped Connectors - Accessories - Jackscrews - 206514-1 Application Field and Working Principle

Introduction

206514-1 Jackscrews are typically utilized to secure the metal shells of a connector to the dielectric housing or wall panel. They are designed for use in military/aerospace applications and are available in metric or imperial sizes. They provide a significant amount of electrical and mechanical strength and are suitable for both commercial and industrial applications.

Application Field

206514-1 Jackscrews are widely used to securely fasten D-Sub, D-Shaped connectors and accessories. With their superior strength, they are a great value for high-bandwidth applications requiring reliable signal performance. They can also be used to secure metal shells of industrial connectors to wall panels or dielectric housing.

They are highly suitable for various applications where extra strength, reliability and repeatability are required. This can include applications such as instrumentation, test and measurement, telecommunications networks, communications infrastructure, power systems, medical electronics, avionics, shipboard applications, and industrial automation.

Working Principle

206514-1 Jackscrews work by tightening their threads into the front metal shell of the D-Sub connector and the back mounting surface. This securely fastens the connector onto the surface ensuring a reliable and dependable connection. The advantage of using this type of jackscrew is that they do not require additional mounting hardware such as nuts or standoffs. This makes installation fast and easy and eliminates the need for extra components.

The threads of the jackscrews are designed to be self-locking, which means that they secure the connector onto the surface from the back as they are tightened. This makes them ideal for applications where vibration or movement is a concern. The threads also provide superior strength and are rated to over 2,000 lbs. of force, making them perfect for applications that require tough mechanical linkage.

Conclusion

206514-1 Jackscrews are designed for use in military/aerospace applications and are suitable for both commercial and industrial applications where extra strength, reliability and repeatability are required. They provide an efficient and cost-effective way of fastening metal shells for D-Sub connectors and accessories to wall panels or dielectric housing. With their self-locking threads, they offer superior strength and vibration-resistance while also eliminating the need for extra mounting hardware.
