Board Stiff With Double Handling PCBs?
The new THTR hm 2.0 mm Hard Metric female connectors from In2Connect can save important time and associated PCB assembly costs.
Until now, the most cost-effective means of applying a right angle female connector was to "press-fit" the connector to the PCB after all the other board components had been placed and reflow soldered Now, "press-fit" is no longer the solution of choice! A logical addition to the standard press-fit right angle female connectors, these new 'ept' "paste in hole" hm 2.0 mm THTR (Through-Hole Technology Reflow) types, can be fitted as with all other SMT reflow solder components before processing ~ thus eliminating the "press-fit" step and double handling of the PCB completely

Competitive connectors offer high reliability
High quality, high reliability and highly competitive, industrial connector types DIN 43650 and M8/M12 have been added to an extensive range of connectors.
The connector is manufactured with a high-temp plastic body moulding and can be soldered in a paste in hole process with all other surface mount components.
A great deal of design effort has gone into optimizing the connector 'wafers' to ensure the best possible convection of oven heat for the re-flow process.
This all means less time, fewer production steps, and lower overall costs.
The business end of the connector retains the same superior 'ept' female, "flexible zone", dual beam contact design to ensure 250 mating cycles of maintenance free interconnection.
The connectors are available in the full female hm 2.0 mm Hard Metric product range for the type A, B, C and AB modules with or without ground shields.
