PRECI-DIP - AS39029 Hoodless contact with Eagle Grip clip, AS39029 Hoodless contact with Reverse clip patented technology

Established in 1976, PRECI-DIP is one of the world leaders in the manufacturing of screw-machined contacts. Precision tools and contact assembly machines are developed, designed and produced by PRECI-DIP. 300 high-speed turning machines for producing precision contacts made of various copper alloys. Capacity: more than 150 million pieces/week. PRECI-DIP is also a leader in spring-loaded contacts – a top-quality industrial production. The company also develops Custom-made insulators for special requirements – 150 contact assembly machines for high-speed clip insertion in the contact body.

PRECI-DIP is ISO 9001, ISO 14001.

AS39029 Hoodless contact with Eagle Grip clip patented technology

• The hoodless contact consists of two parts: the contact body and the clip are made from different base materials.
• The high-speed screw machined contact body is made of brass.
• The use of quality crimping brass renders the annealing operation unnecessary.
• The precision stamped and formed Eagle Grip clip is made of beryllium-copper
• Separate electroplating processes of the body and clip offer the best cost-performance ratio.
• The clip is precisely positioned in the outer shell and firmly held in place between a shoulder and the crimp lip.
• Eagle Grip clip hoodless contacts are presently available in sizes 16, 20 and 22.
• Optimal symmetry and concentricity of the contact fingers thanks to geometry, stamping and assembly processes.
• Fully automatic assembly process with in-line mechanical and electrical checks.
• High surface quality of the stamped and formed clip.
• Better contact redundancy thanks to 3 or 4 contact fingers
• Self-alignment of mating pin thanks to multiple functions provided by the clip (guiding, multiple contact points).
• Reduced number of interaxial deviations

AS39029 Hoodless contact with Reverse clip patented technology:

The hooded contact consists of three parts, separately manufactured and made of different base materials.

This design allows an optimization of the performance and to select the most appropriate production process individually:

• Contact body made of machined brass
• Reverse clip made of stamped and formed beryllium-copper
• Protection hood made of deep-drawn stainless steel

Separate electroplating processes of the body and clip offer the best cost-performance ratio. The assembly of the 3 parts is then carried out on dedicated, fully automatic assembly lines.

Reverse clip contacts are presently available in size 12, 16, 20 and 22. This proprietary technology, entirely developed by PRECI-DIP, is protected by international patents.

In comparison with the traditional slotted contact body, the Reverse clip design has several advantages:

• Smaller difference between insertion and extraction force
• Reduced dispersion of the force values
• Better redundancy at the level of the contact point, thanks to 6 or 8 contact fingers
