INTRODUCING the 0.4 mm PRESS-FIT TERMINAL
The all-new 0.4mm EON press-fit zone is designed to work with the now industry-standard plated-through-hole size of 0.60 +/- 0.05mm. The press-fit zone achieves optimum retention strength at each end of the PTH size range by employing a combination of elastic and plastic deformation, which is biased towards the former at the lower end of the PTH size range, and towards the latter at the higher end of the PTH size range. At no point is the elongation allowed to exceed the material limit, to eliminate the likelihood of micro-crack formation.

PRESS-FIT VERSATILITY
- Hundreds of tooled components in both soldered and compliant press-fit terminals
- Allows replacement of terminal in PCB
- Modularized tooling provides low cost product extensions
- Scalable insertion systems deliver cost efficient assembly solutions
- Global design, manufacturing and sales locations
PRESS-FIT VALUE
- Fast production process
- Compliant press-fit connection is less dependent on manufacturing process for reliability than soldered connection
- Provides a simple lead-free solution
PRESS-FIT RELIABILITY
- High normal force along with high retention force ensures reliable connection in automotive environments
- Eliminates wave soldering/eliminates screen paste solder
- Low contact resistance; reliable interface
- Improves product reliability
- a. No cold solder joints
- b. Eliminates solder flux contamination
