Connector manufacturer contact material types

The production of a connector is inseparable from the choice of raw materials. Different materials can bring different effects. Therefore, it is very necessary for the connector industry practitioners to understand the knowledge of the connector materials. So, do you know what the connector contacts are? In the following, Konnra Electronics engineers will focus on what the connector manufacturer's contact materials are. 

Konnra Electronics engineers pointed out that the connector contact materials are generally three kinds: brass, phosphor bronze and beryllium copper. As for how to choose these three materials, it depends on the type of contact, the frequency of plugging and the connector. Depending on the electrical and environmental conditions of the work, the materials and usage of the commonly used contacts are as follows;
     1. Brass: Copper-zinc alloy, high conductivity (26%), but the elasticity is poor, the appearance is yellow. According to the different copper content, it is divided into different grades, such as C2600, C2680 (JIS model). Each model is also divided into different hardness grades, such as 1/2H, H, EH, SH. Commonly used for PIN pins, grounding strips, etc.
     2. Phosphor bronze: copper-tin alloy, low conductivity (13%), but the elasticity is better, the appearance is red. According to the different copper content, it is divided into different grades, such as C5195, C5210 (JIS model). Each model is also divided into different hardness grades, such as 1/2H, H, EH, SH. Commonly used for terminals with shrapnel, such as various wire terminals.
     3. Beryllium copper: It has the advantages of the above two kinds of alloy copper, high conductivity (40%), good elasticity, but expensive, less used in the connector.
