C702 10M008 252 40 (AMPHENOL SINE/TUCHEL)

The C702 10M008 252 40 is a PCB-Slimline Wiping Contact with position pins and metal cover for high mechanical stability. This wiping contact is ideal for pick and place assembly. The contact set is fixed. When the card is inserted, it wipes over the data contacts until they arrive at the card pads. Depending upon the card surface, wiping traces which do not influence the card function can occur after some insertion cycles. The advantage of wiping contacts is that they clean the contact point with every mating cycle.
