How can connectors reduce socket and pin wear?

Date:2025-09-12

When connecting connectors, the pins need to apply absolute force to open, but it is easier to separate them. Therefore, it can be concluded that the coupling force of the electrical connector is stronger than the separation force.

How can connectors reduce socket and pin wear?

Therefore, the interaction between the two forces of insertion and extraction can easily lead to connector wear and tear. If you want to reduce wear and tear, you can take a look at the following good methods:

1. It can improve the strength of the gold plating layer on the contact surface, which can effectively reduce friction.

2. The contact surface can be nickel plated first and then gold plated, which will reduce the friction compared to directly gold plating on copper.

3. The thicker the nickel layer, the stronger the wear resistance of the gold plating layer.

4. The smoother the surface, the lower the roughness, so the friction force is very small.

5. During the normal operation of connectors, attention should be paid to the maintenance of electrical connectors to reduce human damage to them.
