Engineering Summary

This product is an individual spring-loaded pogo pin with a stepped cylindrical body and a visible shoulder or flange. It provides one compliant electrical contact point rather than a multi-contact connector assembly.

The spring-loaded plunger provides controlled axial compliance against a defined mating target. Final mounting, flange function, working position and mechanical seating should be defined by the approved part drawing and surrounding device structure.

Individual Pogo Pin, Not a Multi-Pin Connector

This SKU represents one spring-loaded electrical contact. A pogo pin connector combines multiple pogo pins with a housing and a defined multi-position contact arrangement.

This page should therefore be evaluated using individual-contact parameters such as body diameter, flange geometry, plunger height, termination structure, working stroke, spring force, mating target and complete electrical path.

Stepped Body and Flange Geometry

The visible pogo pin uses a stepped cylindrical body with a pronounced shoulder or flange. This feature can participate in project-specific installation geometry, but its exact mechanical function should be confirmed from the approved drawing.

Flange diameter, flange thickness, axial position, body diameter and surrounding mounting geometry should be reviewed together before the component is released into the mechanical design.

Flange Function Requires Mechanical Definition

A visible flange should not automatically be described as a final mechanical stop, press-fit feature or retention shoulder. Its function depends on the approved housing, PCB or device-level installation design.

The surrounding structure should establish the final mechanical datum and stop so the spring-loaded plunger operates within its defined compression range.

Mounting and Termination Structure

The current image shows a straight rear metallic structure, but the exact termination type cannot be established from photography alone. Through-hole PCB mounting, solder-terminal use or another installation method should be confirmed from the approved part drawing.

Tail diameter, tail length, PCB hole requirements, wire compatibility and soldering conditions should only be published after the termination architecture is confirmed.

Right-Angle Classification Check

The visible pogo pin is axially straight and does not show an obvious bent or right-angle termination. Right-angle terminology should therefore not be used as a product attribute unless the approved mechanical drawing confirms a perpendicular or bent mounting architecture.

Working Height, Working Stroke and Total Travel

Working stroke is the intended operating compression range of the spring-loaded plunger and should be distinguished from the total available mechanical travel.

Free height, working height, recommended compression and total travel should be defined together so the mating structure operates the pogo pin within its intended spring range.

The pogo pin should not be used as the structural stop for the completed assembly.

Mating Target and Contact Interface

Electrical contact performance depends on the relationship between the plunger tip and the mating target. Target geometry, diameter, surface finish, relative position and lateral offset should be reviewed as part of the complete interface.

A valid electrical connection requires the defined mating target and operating compression, not merely physical contact between two visible metal surfaces.

Current Capability and Complete Conductive Path

Current capability should be evaluated across the complete conductive path:

Source → PCB or Wire → Termination → Pogo Pin Tail → Internal Contact Path → Plunger → Mating Interface → Target Conductor → Load.

Body diameter, visual size or a previous product-page rating is not sufficient to establish an approved current capability.

For the complete conductive path, voltage drop follows Vdrop = I × Rpath and resistive power loss follows Ploss = I² × Rpath.

Contact Resistance Requires Defined Test Conditions

Contact resistance can depend on plunger compression, mating target, measurement points, test current and the condition of the contact surfaces.

Resistance data should therefore be published together with the corresponding test definition rather than as an isolated value.

Materials and Plating

The gold-colored appearance does not establish the plating composition, underplate or plating thickness. Plunger, barrel, tail, spring and plating materials should follow the approved BOM or part specification.

Material or plating selection should not be used to imply corrosion resistance, medical suitability, automotive qualification or another environmental performance level without corresponding validation.

Application Fit

This individual flanged pogo pin can be evaluated for single-contact interfaces where controlled axial compliance and a defined stepped-body installation geometry are required.

Application suitability depends on available space, flange and body dimensions, mounting method, mating-target position, working stroke, spring-force condition and complete electrical requirements.

Customization Options

CTP can review project-specific requirements for body diameter, flange diameter, flange position, overall length, plunger geometry, tail structure, working height, working stroke, spring force, materials and plating specification.

Final mechanical and electrical parameters should be released through an approved pogo pin drawing and validation requirement.

FAQ

Is this an individual pogo pin or a connector?

This product is an individual spring-loaded pogo pin. It provides one electrical contact point and does not include a multi-pin connector housing.

What is the purpose of the flange on this pogo pin?

The visible shoulder or flange can participate in project-specific installation geometry, but its exact function should be defined by the approved mechanical drawing rather than assumed to be a stop or retention feature.

Is this a right-angle pogo pin?

The visible component is axially straight and does not show an obvious right-angle structure. Right-angle classification should only be used if confirmed by the approved part drawing.

Is this a solder-terminal pogo pin?

The exact rear termination structure should be confirmed from the approved drawing before solder-terminal terminology is used as a product specification.

Can this pogo pin carry 5A?

Current capability is project-specific and should be validated across the complete conductive path, including the source conductor, termination, pogo pin, mating interface, target conductor and load.

What is the working stroke?

Working stroke is the intended operating compression range of the spring-loaded plunger. It is different from total available travel and should be defined together with working height and the mechanical stop position.

Is the gold-colored surface confirmed as 0.5 μm gold plating?

Not from appearance alone. Plating composition, underplate and thickness should be defined by the approved part specification.

What information is required to customize this pogo pin?

Provide the required body and flange dimensions, installation method, mating target, working height, working stroke, spring force, electrical requirements, operating environment and available drawings for engineering review.
