The contact wiping action on the PCB (.007" - .014" distance) reduces resistance by removing oxidation on the pad.
Z Series Contact Wipe
Wipe Distance: .007" - .014
The Competition's Twist Pin Contact
Designed for board-to-board applications with board spacing between 0.100" and 0.350". Z Series uses a patented z-axis contact system that is specifically engineered to meet AirBorn's strict performance & reliability requirements.
Solid Connection Through Compression
Z Series Uncompressed
Z Series Fully Compressed
Reduced resistance with a single-piece contact construction vs. designs with multiple components.
Patented 1-Piece Contact System
N Series
3 points-of-contact
Design intricate, space-saving 3D routed flexible circuit assemblies with Z Series connectors.
Z Series & Flex —
A Perfect Marriage
Options for multiple contacts-per-cavity means redundancy for reliability and even power modules are easily achieved.
Z Series Have Full Power Potential
Fewer Z Series connectors are needed in board-to-board sandwich applications compared to traditional connectors. That's less board space, cost, & potential failure points creating a more reliable solution.
Z Series vs.
Standard Connectors
Simply align & compress the connector between parallel, printed wiring boards or between a printed wiring board and other electronic components.
Easy Installation
Reliable electrical continuity eliminates costly soldering processes & inspections while promoting repairability.
