About compression Compression Terminal

What is Compression Terminal?

Compression Terminal are products that are called various names, such as ground terminals, earth terminals, on-board contacts, and spring terminals, but we have standardized the name to "Compression Terminal." They are components that are mounted on a circuit board and ensure connection by pressing them against the target contact, and are often called by names that reflect their ease of use for ground connections to housings, etc. As they have a minimalist structure for a connector, they are often offered by manufacturers other than those that specialize in connectors.

Compression Terminal mechanism and selection method

Although there are various shapes, the initial height at the time of mounting and the specified height range that can guarantee connection are determined for each product, and the options are narrowed down based on the product size and other factors.

In addition, after confirming the temperature rating and required current capacity, you will be asked to select the most suitable one (if the current capacity is insufficient, please consider using more than one).

Our height variations

We offer over 40 different products with connection heights ranging from 0.6 to 7.0 mm to meet the various needs of our customers. You can search for Compression Terminal with the desired height here.

Options and structures that achieve high workability and reliability

Although it is a product with a very simple shape, in order to improve the reliability and workability unique to a connector manufacturer, various ingenuity is put into each product.

Options for automatic implementation

We are making efforts such as supporting embossed packaging and providing a wide adsorption area.

Solder wicking prevention option

Measures to prevent solder wicking are implemented using a nickel barrier.

Optimally designed materials and structure

Utilizing know-how cultivated in connector design and the use of CAE, we select optimal materials (especially high heat resistant products) and structural designs for each usage environment. Our knowledge as a connector manufacturer is also used in many product evaluations.

Contact shape options for improved contact reliability

Connection reliability is improved with options such as dimple contacts and two-point contacts with independent springs.
