Souriau RC and RM Machined Contacts
Souriau RC and RM Machined Contacts are precision-engineered snap-in pins and sockets designed for industrial connectors operating in harsh environments. These devices are constructed from high-conductivity copper alloy and are available with various plating options, including gold, gold flash, and tin over nickel, to meet diverse electrical performance requirements. The RC and RM contacts have a minimum contact retention of 110N and a current rating range from 7A to 26A. These contacts support wire sizes from 14AWG to 28AWG and feature a minimum individual withdrawal force of 0.55N. The RC and RM machined contacts are intended for railway applications.
