Samtec SQT Series Straight Through Hole PCB Socket, 8-Contact, 1 Row, 2 mm Pitch, 5.5A, 450V SQT-108-01-L-S

Samtec SQT-108-01-L-S Straight Through Hole PCB Socket is an 8-contact, single-row, board-to-board connector designed with a 2 mm pitch. The socket features a strong and reliable construction suitable for use in electronic, industrial, and laboratory environments requiring durable interconnections. This product operates at 450 V and supports a current rating of 5.5 A at 20 °C, ensuring robust performance for demanding applications.

The contacts are female, made of bronze with gold plating on the contact surfaces and a matte tin plating over the PCB tails designed as 0.5 mm square contacts. These materials and plating ensure optimal conductivity and corrosion resistance. The housing material uses a liquid crystal polymer (LCP) which provides excellent mechanical strength and thermal stability to withstand temperatures from -55 °C up to 125 °C. The black insulator offers additional protection and durability.

The socket uses through-hole mounting with a straight orientation for easy integration on printed circuit boards. It has an above-board height of 6.35 mm and a post length of 2.29 mm, making it ideal for vertical board-to-board connection.

The SQT series includes single and double row options with vertical and horizontal orientations to cater to various industrial and electronic design requirements. This model, SQT-108-01-L-S, is a single row vertical socket type part of the established SQT series known for rugged and reliable PCB interconnections.

Applications include industrial electronics manufacturing, test and measurement equipment, automation systems, and other environments where durable electrical connectors are essential. The product does not carry any specific certification but meets standard industrial requirements for board-to-board sockets.
