The Step Probe F73216B0098G300SP (item number 1030626) is a Spring Contact Probe with a disc-shaped contact area for position and presence testing. On F73216B0098G300SP, electrical contact is established only at the intended penetration depth, making the Step Probe suitable for position and presence checks on connectors. F73216B0098G300SP is suited to contacts located in housings, recesses or difficult-to-access areas because its disc head makes contact only at a defined penetration depth. Key mechanical specifications include pitch 2.54 mm / 100 mil, step diameter 1.8 mm, pin diameter 0.7 mm, pin length 5 mm, spring force 300 cN, pointing accuracy ±0.08 mm. The electrical rating of F73216B0098G300SP combines 5 A continuous current with 20 mΩ typical contact resistance. The stepped contact geometry of F73216B0098G300SP makes electrical contact only in the intended installation position and can therefore help detect missing or incorrectly positioned terminals.
