Press-in technology
This mounting type, which does not involve soldering, is characterized by low press-in and high holding forces. It is used in applications where PCBs must not be subjected to thermal loads or ready-mounted SMD components are not permitted. The elastic press-in zone ensures safe contacting and low contact resistance.
They are suitable for PCBs with a thickness of 1.5 mm or more and meet the applicable requirements of standard DIN EN 60 352 5: 1995 9.
According to this standard, a special through-contacted drill hole is required, whose structure depends on the design type used.

Press-in method
The horizontal headers can be pressed into the PCB using a flat press-in stamp. Contact-supporting tools are not required.
Contact-supporting lower stamps are available for vertical headers. Stamp sets consisting of an upper and lower stamp are available on request.
The high quality and reliability of press-in connectors are complemented by their easy operation and user-friendly repair (just press out).
