Banana and Tip Connectors – Jacks, PlugsBanana and tip connectors, which include jacks and plugs, have served a vital purpose in the connecting and transmitting of electrical power and signals in electronic circuits since their invention in the late 19th century. Named after the shape of their respective protruding and retracting pieces, these types of connectors are produced in a variety of materials, grades and sizes.The 3258 connector is a great example of the many types of banana and tip connectors, and its applications are vast. This connector was invented in 1958 by the 3M Company and made a major splash in the aeronautic industry where it quickly became the established standard due to its versatile, yet dependable nature. It has since gone on to become one of the most widely used connectors around the world.The 3258 connector can be used in a wide variety of applications, the most common being aerospace, military and industrial. The connector is perfect for these types of applications due to its high reliability, durable construction, and its tight connection system. It also features several design upgrades from previous models, such as better contacts, internal strain relief, and a recessed interior.The working principle of the 3258 connector is straightforward. It is a hermaphroditical connector, meaning that it has both male and female parts. This allows for a simple assembly process and for the connection to be made quickly once both parts are pushed together. The internal spring provides tension and keeps the parts connected with a good fit.The major components of the 3258 connector are typically composed of aluminum or stainless steel and are then plated with a nickel barrier to protect against corrosion. The contacts are usually made of copper alloy and come in several different configurations, such as straight, right-angle, or combo for both straight and right-angle connections. The contact pins are also available in various lengths to offer users even more flexibility and better electrical performance.The 3258 connector has been used in a variety of applications and environments. It is often used on ground support equipment, tooling machinery, and other equipment that requires a secure and long-lasting connection. The connector is also popular in the industrial and military sectors due to its dependability and resistance to shock and vibration. It is also used in communication systems, broadcast applications, and even audio-visual applications.The 3258 connector is an incredibly reliable and versatile connector, and its use in a variety of applications continues to grow. Its design ensures a tight fit and its durability ensures a dependable connection every time. It is also one of the most widely used connectors in the world due to its versatility, ease of assembly, and rugged construction. Whether accessed on the ground, in the air or underwater, the 3258 connector will remain a reliable and trusted source of electrical connectivity.
