For applications where a connector is being soldered to a Flex-circuit or PCB, AEF Solutions can offer Header assemblies.
This allows the header to be Vapour phase or wave flow soldered to the flex/PCB and for the Pintail connector to be “plugged in” to the header. This negates the issue of any sub-standard solder joints of connector contacts to the flex/PCB and also allows for ease of connector replacement or flex/PCB replacement, if required, as a result of future failure.
Available for all Mil circular connector types from 2 to 128 contacts and for Rectangular connectors, up to 150 way.
Header thickness is generally around 5mm and solder spill lengths and diameters designed to suit individual requirements. Solder terminations available in Gold over Nickel plating, Tin plating or Tin/Lead solder dip.
