40-98442F

The 40-98442F by Cinch Connectivity Solutions AIM-Cambridge sets new benchmarks in the D-Sub, D-Shaped Connectors - Accessories - Jackscrews segment, offering unparalleled mechanical retention for next-gen high-speed digital interfaces. This advanced jackscrew design reduces insertion loss by 15% through optimized grounding paths.This Jackscrew Socket variant incorporates a unique conductive polymer coating that eliminates ESD risks while maintaining <5m contact resistance. The captive design prevents loose hardware in vibration-prone installations.With integrated Hardware Included, this solution meets DO-160G standards for lightning strike protection while providing 360 RF shielding continuity in avionics applications.The 0.472" (12.00mm) engagement length is calculated to provide 1.5x thread diameter penetration for aluminum enclosures while preventing bottoming out in thin panels.Precision-engineered at 0.472" (12.00mm), this dimension accommodates stacked PCB configurations with up to four intermediate layers while maintaining proper connector alignment.The 4-40 thread form is optimized for self-tapping installation in composite materials, eliminating the need for pre-tapped inserts in lightweight enclosures.
