0428170142

Optimized for next-generation connectivity, the 0428170142 by Molex redefines performance in the Rectangular Connectors - Contacts segment. Its advanced materials and precision engineering meet the rigorous demands of industrial automation systems.The Power construction approach enables high-speed automated assembly while maintaining micron-level precision. This manufacturing technique is particularly suited for high-volume production of miniature connectors.The Pin design incorporates redundant contact points that ensure uninterrupted signal paths. This feature is particularly valuable in safety-critical systems where connection reliability cannot be compromised.Implementing Crimp methodology, these contacts achieve superior mechanical retention while minimizing thermal resistance. The termination process has been validated for use in high-vibration industrial equipment.Designed for 14-16 AWG conductors, the contact geometry prevents strand damage during crimping operations. The optimized wire retention system maintains consistent contact force throughout the product lifecycle.The Gold surface treatment provides exceptional resistance to sulfurization, making it ideal for petroleum industry applications. Laboratory tests show 50% less contact degradation compared to standard finishes.With precisely controlled 30.0µin (0.76µm), the contacts maintain stable contact resistance even after environmental stress testing. This specification is critical for medical equipment requiring long-term reliability.
