The RADSOK Design Amphe-Power Connectors Socket cylinder within female contact has several equally with RADSOK Technology spaced longitudinal beams twisted into a hyperbolic shape. As male pin is inserted, axial members in the female half SL-391-4 deflect, imparting high current flow across the connection with minimal voltage loss. The hyperbolic, stamped grid configuration ensures a large, coaxial, face-to-face surface area engagement. Ideal for crimp termination applications requiring repeated RADSOK technology is based mating cycles and high current with a low milli-volt drop. upon a stamped and formed flat grid, uniquely twisted into a hyperbolic geometry to provide robust, high density contact to the The RADSOK (RADial SOcKet) High Amperage, Low Insertion mating pin contact. Most pin and Force Electrical Terminal provides value to your purchasing, socket technologies rely upon engineering, quality and manufacturing objectives. spring (beam element) properties of the contact elements, which tend to weaken over time. Unlike most other pin and socket solu- tions, the RADSOK also utlilizes the tensile strength properties of the flat, high conductivity alloy grid. This provides the high normal forces required for conductivity while also providing large conduc- tive surface area. Correspondingly low voltage drop and low tempera- ture rise are also achieved while maintaining low insertion forces.
