Superior Press-Fit Pins & Receptacles from Mill-Max
Leading PCB interconnect manufacturer, Mill-Max, understands that quality is critical when it comes to printed circuit board connectors. That’s exactly why Mill-Max has designed its line of press-fit pins and receptacles to meet the highest industry standards. Using proprietary manufacturing methods, pins and receptacles are high speed turned to meet precise tolerances and plated to ensure superior conductivity and corrosion resistance.
Mill-Max’s precision turned press-fit pins and receptacles offer many benefits over traditional stamped and formed connectors.
Benefits of Precision Turned Pins & Receptacles:
- Seamless construction prevents contact contamination from wave or reflow soldering.
- Specialized press-fit feature geometries – triangle, square, hexagon, octagon – to meet the hole size requirements of specific applications.
- Lead-in countersinks on pin receptacles to facilitate pin alignment.
- Pin and receptacle shells are brass alloy, 360 ½ hard, for strength, conductive and thermal properties.
- Multi-finger beryllium copper contact clip scores the mating device lead for gastight electrical connection and provides best power and force distribution.
- Two-piece receptacle construction (shell and contact clip) allows for cost efficient plating combinations for best solderability and conductivity.

Molex: Helping Technology Companies Push Boundaries
Molex’s History of Innovation
For decades Molex has been providing innovative solutions to the electronics industry. In fact, Molex products were essential to the first car radio, the first cellular phone and the first HDTV. Molex began in 1938 with the invention of a moldable thermoplastic that founders, Frederick and Edwin Krehbiel, named Molex. In the years following the company expanded into the burgeoning consumer appliance industry.

Mill-Max Expands their Target Connectors Line
Mill-Max recently introduced a selection of new target connectors and pins. These components are used in place of SMT pads as the mating surface for spring-loaded pins on a PCB. The newly launched components are offered in .100” (2,54 mm) and 2 mm grid connectors as well as new discrete pins for a broad range of applications.
Combining target connectors with spring-loaded connectors on opposing boards can be an easy and convenient solution for making connections between stacked boards or docking stations and devices.
The new target connectors and pins are available with both through-hole and SMT terminations (SMT products are packaged on tape and reel). This product family includes choices for connectors with flat or concave face contact surfaces. Concave face targets provide additional surface area for mating and can aid in centering/alignment of components and/or boards fitted with spring-loaded connectors.
As a complement to the existing .100” (2,54 mm) grid through-hole and SMT target connectors, Mill-Max has introduced three new series featuring targets with concave faces. These include single and double row through-hole and double row SMT connectors.
Completing the roll-out of new target components are four discrete target pins well suited for mating with Mill-Max’s larger spring-loaded pins such as the 0861-0 and 0871-0 which have .092” (2,34 mm) diameter plungers. There are two through-hole pins, one with a flat contact surface and one with a concave contact surface. These pins are characterized by a large .125” (3,17 mm) diameter face, a .120” (3,05 mm) above board height and a .030” (,76 mm) diameter tail. The SMT pins have the flat contact surface and concave contact surface options along with the .125” (3,17) diameter face and .120” (3,05 mm) above board height. These SMT pins are available in bulk or on tape and reel.
All the pins are RoHS compliant, precision-machined and gold-plated. These features ensure environmental protection, durability and excellent conductivity. The connector insulators are molded from high temperature plastic suitable for most soldering processes including RoHS environments.
