TE Connectivity Mini Spring Socket and Discrete Sockets are composed of a series of individual sockets, each utilizing a permanently secured helical spring design to accept round, square, or rectangular leads. These sockets offer a unique design (helical spring for multiple points of contact and a crimped spring and eyelet) which provides low contact resistance. Mini Spring Socket and Discrete Sockets are designed to meet severe environmental conditions which are resistant to vibration, and shock, and have a wide operating temperature range.
