Zierick has increased the reliability of quick disconnect terminals with patented Stable-Lok® and Accu-Lok mounting. Designed to deliver greater terminal mounting strength, these particular unique features are available only from Zierick and are available on most standard Zierick quick disconnects.
Stable-Lok® PCB quick disconnects actually double terminal strength against fracture or mounting leg breakage. The Stable-Lok® concept shifts pivot points to outer mounting areas for a stabilizing resistive torque. Stable-Lok® terminals are available in 0.187" (4.75mm), 0.205" (5.21mm), and 0.250" (6.35mm) application sizes.
Accu-Lok mounting is designed for 0.110" (2.79mm) applications. With Accu-Lok, PCB retention is not dependent on tight mounting hole tolerances. Instead, the terminal leg enters freely within the hole, with retention accomplished through a controlled splitting and forming of the leg. This eliminates stress and withstands repeated mating, withdrawal, and shock. Hole diameter tolerances may be as great as ±0.004" (0.10mm) for either Accu-Lok or splay mounting types.
Zierick quick disconnects are manufactured to NEMA, UL and CSA specifications. They are available in vertical or horizontal configurations, loose or reeled. Assembly can be accomplished with Zierick hand tools or Zierick semi- and fully-automated applicators.
- Zierick quick disconnect terminals are available in 0.110" (2.79mm), 0.187" (4.75mm), 0.205" (5.21mm), and 0.250" (6.35mm) sizes.
- All brass terminals have a copper underplating for improved solderability over time.
- Terminals are available in loose or reeled formats, and in vertical or horizontal configurations.
- Stable-Lok® and Accu-Lok terminals mount securely in holes with a diameter tolerance of ±0.003" (±0.076mm).
- Stable-Lok® and Accu-Lok mounting reduces the instances of fractured or misaligned solder joints.
- Assembly is achieved with Zierick semi- or fully-automatic applicators.
