Description
Product Overview
The VH3.96 contact from uxcell is a precision‑engineered electrical terminal designed for demanding industrial and scientific applications. With a 3.96 mm pitch, this compact component measures just 1.97 × 1.57 × 0.39 inches and weighs a mere 0.01 oz, making it ideal for dense PCB layouts. It features a robust copper alloy construction, rated for AC/DC 10 A and 250 V, and maintains an initial contact resistance of 10 mΩ (max 20 mΩ after environmental testing). Insulation resistance stands at 1000 MΩ, and it can withstand 1500 V AC for one minute, ensuring safety and durability.
Usage
Designed for wire gauges #22‑#18 and standard 1.6 mm board thickness, the VH3.96 contact excels in automation equipment, control panels, and test instrumentation. Engineers and technicians appreciate its reliable performance in harsh temperature ranges from –25 °C to 85 °C. Whether assembling a power distribution module or retrofitting a legacy system, this terminal provides a secure, low‑loss connection that minimizes heat buildup and signal degradation.
