RIA Connect introduces a revolution in the world of PCB connections

SMT spring contact allows push-in connection of wire

The ASM01 spring contact is a single pole, vibration resistant surface-mounted contact which allows for a solderless termination. The construction allows the connection of pinned components and individual solid wires. Version “Y” accommodates 18 – 16 AWG, while version “W” handles the thinner gauges of 26 – 18 AWG. Stranded wires with ferrules can also be used.

The ASM01 allows leaded components to effectively become SMT compatible, thereby eliminating the need to wavesolder them. The ASM01 can withstand soldering temperatures of 290°C for 90 seconds, integrating into most any reflow solder process with ease. Furthermore, the component can be soldered either on the component or the soldering side for added flexibility. Covering only 3.5mm2, the ASM01Y is a compact, fast, and economical connector solution.
