CASE STUDY : SMART APPAREL

High-Current Magnetic Pogo Pin Solutions for Extreme Environments

Delivering 60W power delivery, IP68 waterproof ratings, and blind-mating capabilities to the next generation of smart heated wear.

The Application: Zero-Friction Connectivity in the Cold

Traditional connectors fail in freezing outdoor conditions. Users wearing thick insulated gloves require an interface that supports true single-handed blind mating.

CTP custom 5-pin magnetic pogo pin connector with N52 magnets for smart heated gloves, featuring blind mating and IP68 waterproof design

Breakaway Safety Feature

Engineered with premium N52 Neodymium magnets, the connection detaches instantly upon accidental wire snags, protecting the internal heating matrix from mechanical damage.

IP68 Environmental Sealing

The female receptacle is structurally sealed against snow, sweat, and dust, ensuring uninterrupted power flow to the five-finger heating elements.


Engineering Teardown: Industrial-Grade Specs

Bridging the gap between precision electronics and flexible textiles requires profound structural and electrical innovation.
