Available in cable-to-cable, cable-to-board, and board-to-board versions, fast-mate 101Lok Datamate Connectors require 101° turn to ensure security of retention device. Connectors use hardware tensioned by coil spring to minimize time required to mate connector halves. Spring tensioning also helps resist vibration in rugged environment applications such as aerospace.
Harwin Cuts Secure Connector Assembly Time with New 'Quarter-Turn' 101Lok Datamate Connector Series
Simple to mate; no special tooling required
May 27 2009, Salem NH, USA...Harwin Inc, the leading manufacturer of connectors and interconnect solutions for high-reliability applications, has just launched 101Lok, a fast-mate version of its secure, 2mm pitch, J-Tek Datamate cable to cable, cable to board and board to board connector family. Historically, secure mating has been achieved with the Datamate J-Tek version using Jack screws. New 101Lok Datamate connectors require only a simple 'quarter turn' -101 degrees - to ensure complete security of the retention device.
101Lok connectors use specially designed-hardware tensioned by a coil spring to reduce the time required to mate the connector halves. This is ideal for those users that are seeking a faster means of assembly, whilst ensuring complete security of the retention device. This novel locking feature is also ideally suited to Harwin's mixed technology Mix-Tek Datamate connectors and also the Trio-Tek range where high production volumes demand minimal assembly costs.
The spring tensioning also helps resist vibration in rugged environment applications such as aerospace. Comments Bill Neukomm, VP for Sales & Marketing at Harwin North America: "These new 101Lok connectors are designed to be very easy to use and require no special tooling. Our Datamate connectors are chosen because they are very rugged and highly resistant to shock and vibration. Now, with the introduction of these 101Lok Datamate variants, hi-rel users can speed up and simplify mating while still being assured of achieving the performance they require."
