An individual double ended pogo pin providing compliant electrical contact interfaces at both ends for board-to-board, board-to-module and other customer-defined compression contact architectures. Final dimensions, working stroke on each end, spring force, materials, plating and electrical capability are defined by the approved project drawing.

This double ended pogo pin is an individual spring-loaded electrical contact with contact interfaces at both ends. It is intended for customer-defined compression contact architectures where two mating surfaces require electrical continuity together with controlled axial compliance.
Although the component has two contact ends, it remains one electrical contact component rather than a two-pin connector. The exact internal spring configuration, stroke available on each end and mechanical retention method should be confirmed by the approved drawing.
Mechanical datums, guides, housing features or stops should establish final assembly position. The pogo pin should provide electrical contact and controlled Z-axis compliance rather than acting as the primary structural stop.
Unlike a conventional single-ended pogo pin with one primary spring contact interface and a defined mounting or termination side, this product presents contact interfaces at both ends of the cylindrical body.
Product Type Individual double ended pogo pin
Contact Interfaces Contact surfaces at both ends
Pin Count One electrical contact component
Mechanical Function Controlled axial compliance
In a typical compression-contact architecture, one end of the pogo pin contacts one conductive target while the opposite end contacts another conductive target. The spring-loaded structure accommodates part of the axial stack-up variation while maintaining the designed contact condition.
A valid electrical connection requires more than initial physical contact. The assembly must reach the intended mechanical seating position and place each spring contact within its approved working range.
Final positioning should therefore be controlled by the surrounding housing, mechanical guides, datums or stops. The pogo pin should not be used as the primary structural stop for the assembly.
A double ended pogo pin can be considered when two boards, modules or conductive surfaces must be electrically connected without a permanently soldered contact at both mating interfaces.
The two-sided contact geometry can support compact board-to-board or board-to-module layouts where controlled compression is required. However, the complete mechanical architecture must define the center location, installed height, mating tolerance and allowable movement of the component.
The enlarged central section visible on this product may participate in positioning or retention, but its exact mechanical function must be confirmed from the project drawing rather than inferred from appearance.

Working stroke and total travel must be treated as separate parameters. For a double ended pogo pin, engineers should also confirm how movement is allocated between the two contact ends.
The approved design should define the working condition for End A and End B, including installed height, preload where applicable, mating tolerance and the permitted compression range during normal operation.
The presence of two spring contact ends does not mean that the total available travel can be divided or combined arbitrarily. The internal construction and approved drawing determine the usable movement of each contact interface.
Current capability cannot be determined from the pogo pin diameter, contact appearance or the number of spring ends alone. The complete conductive path must be evaluated.

Depending on the final product architecture, additional PCB traces, solder joints, connectors, FPC or cable sections may also form part of the electrical path.
Vdrop = I × Rpath
Ploss = I² × Rpath
Current, voltage drop and thermal performance should therefore be validated at complete-path level rather than assigned from the physical size of the pogo pin alone.
A double ended pogo pin may be assigned to power, ground, control or signal functions according to the system pin map. The contact itself does not establish a supported data bandwidth.
For signal applications, engineers should evaluate the complete channel including return path, contact geometry, adjacent contacts, pitch, PCB transitions and any connected FPC or cable structures.

The double-ended architecture may be suitable when a customer needs a compliant electrical contact between two conductive surfaces and the surrounding mechanical structure can control alignment and final seating.
Suitability depends on the complete mechanical, electrical, environmental and manufacturing requirements of the final assembly.
CTP can review project-specific double ended pogo pin requirements including the available X/Y/Z envelope, contact geometry, center retention structure, working stroke on each end, mating tolerance, spring force and electrical path.
Depending on engineering feasibility, dimensions, contact geometry, spring characteristics, mechanical retention and surface finish requirements can be defined through the approved project drawing.
If the application requires multiple contacts in a common housing, review pogo pin connector assemblies rather than treating a single double ended contact as a complete connector.
A double ended pogo pin is an individual spring-loaded electrical contact with contact interfaces at both ends. It can be used between two mating conductive surfaces when controlled axial compliance is required.
No. The component has two contact ends but remains one electrical contact component. It should not be confused with a two-pin connector containing two electrically separate contacts.
It can be considered for board-to-board or board-to-module compression interfaces when the surrounding mechanical design controls position, alignment and mating compression.
The working stroke of each end must be defined by the approved drawing. Working stroke should also be distinguished from the total mechanical travel available in the spring structure.
The product is confirmed as a double ended pogo pin, but the exact internal spring architecture and movement relationship between the two ends should be confirmed from the product drawing.
Current capability is project-specific and must be validated across the complete conductive path. Physical contact size alone is not sufficient to determine the supported current.
A double ended pogo pin can be assigned as a signal contact, but supported data rate depends on the complete electrical channel, including return path, contact geometry, PCB transitions and adjacent conductors.
An enlarged center feature is visible on the product, but its exact positioning or retention function should be confirmed from the approved mechanical drawing.
Provide the available X/Y/Z space, installed height, working stroke on both ends, mating tolerance, spring-force requirements, electrical requirements, retention structure and available 2D or 3D drawings.

This product page presents a CTP pogo pin configuration for engineering reference. Final dimensions, electrical ratings, materials, magnet structure, sealing level and reliability targets are not universal values; they are confirmed against the approved drawing, installation condition and model-specific validation plan.
CTP reviews the application and prepares a drawing or specification for approval before sample production. Test scope, acceptance criteria and report format should identify the model, sample status, method, conditions, result and review date.
Yes. Customization can cover geometry, contact layout, materials, cable construction, magnetic structure, sealing and appearance. Feasibility depends on the application and approved specification.
No. Current, voltage, resistance, temperature rise and ingress-protection claims apply only to the identified model and stated test conditions.
Timing is confirmed after the drawing, materials, tooling, sample quantity, validation scope and production requirements have been reviewed.
The development route depends on whether an existing pogo pin can be used, modified or assembled into a customized multi-contact connector.
