Product Introduction

This FC IDC 16P connector adopts a standard 2.54mm pitch, specially designed for flat ribbon cable crimping and PCB internal signal transmission. The insulator is made of PBT plus glass fiber with UL94 V-0 flame retardant level, which has high temperature resistance and excellent mechanical strength. The contact terminal is brass with thickness 0.20mm, treated with nickel bottom and gold plating on the surface, ensuring low and stable Contact Resistance, anti-oxidation and long service life.

It supports reliable operation under -40°C to +105°C, with 1A/250V rated current and voltage, 500V AC withstand voltage, and high insulation resistance. The IDC structure realizes fast wire crimping without stripping or soldering, greatly improving assembly efficiency. It is widely used in computer equipment, industrial control, Automotive Wire harness, new energy vehicle modules and other fields.
