Wurth Elektronik FPC Connector 686 1 mm Pitch 18 Way Straight Male, Solder Pin 68611814122

Wurth Elektronik 68611814122 FPC Connector is a high-quality 1 mm pitch, 18 way straight male connector designed for precise wire-to-board applications. Featuring solder pin termination and Zero Insertion Force (ZIF), it ensures reliable, low-stress connections ideal for repeated mating cycles.

The connector body is made of polyphenylene sulphide, providing excellent thermal stability with a UL94-V0 flammability rating. Its robust phosphor bronze contacts with tin over nickel plating deliver stable electrical performance up to 1 ampere and 125 volts. The single-row configuration and top contact position enhance compactness and ease of assembly on PCBs.

Operating reliably in a temperature range from -25°C to 85°C, this connector fits well in demanding industrial, electronic component manufacturing, and assembly applications including consumer electronics and control systems. The built-in locking mechanism secures the connection, preventing accidental dislodging during use.

The 686 series connectors from Wurth Elektronik are known for their durability, supporting approximately 25 mating cycles. Their low profile horizontal design allows utilization in compact assemblies and devices requiring high-density interconnections.

The connector features 18 phosphor bronze contacts each with tin over nickel plating for superior conductivity and corrosion resistance. The 1 mm pitch allows tight spacing while maintaining signal integrity. The ZIF insertion force reduces mechanical stress on the contacts and FPC cables.

Durable polyphenylene sulphide housing ensures longevity and heat resistance. Surface mount technology facilitates modern automated PCB assembly. The connector includes a reliable locking mechanism to securely hold the cable in place.

It is rated for currents up to 1A and voltages up to 125V, suitable for low power electronic circuits. Designed to operate in industrial and laboratory electronics environments with a temperature tolerance from -25°C to 85°C.

The top contact and straight orientation optimize accessibility and connection stability in dense assemblies. No industry certifications are listed, confirming standard compliance without additional approvals.
