MOLEX SL 71851 Crimp Socket Contact, 22-24AWG, Gold Plated

The MOLEX SL 71851 is a high-quality crimp socket contact, engineered for creating reliable electrical connections in wire-to-board applications. Its design features a compliant-pin, press-fit construction that ensures a secure fit and superior electrical conductivity without the need for soldering. This low-profile, latching contact is integral to building robust FFC (Flexible Flat Cable) and IDT (Insulation Displacement Termination) assemblies, providing a professional and durable solution for complex circuitry.

The contact is crafted from phosphor bronze and finished with a gold plating. This combination offers excellent corrosion resistance and maintains a stable, low-resistance connection over many mating cycles, which is critical for signal integrity in demanding environments. The compact dimensions of the contact make it ideal for high-density applications where space is at a premium.

Specifically designed for use with Molex SL 70066 and 70450 Series housing connectors, this socket contact ensures full compatibility and reliable performance within these established connector systems. The crimp termination type allows for efficient, repeatable assembly, making it suitable for both production lines and field service repairs.

With its precise engineering and high-grade materials, the MOLEX SL 71851 contact is a trusted component for electronics manufacturers, maintenance technicians, and hobbyists who require dependable interconnects for their projects.
