3M 3341 Series Jackscrew Kit for Mini D Ribbon Connector, Steel, 18.5mm Length, 50 Contacts, Female, 3341-3

The 3M 3341 Series Jackscrew Kit, model 3341-3, is specifically engineered for Mini D Ribbon Connector applications requiring exceptional strength and secure coupling in printed circuit board assemblies. This complete kit includes two jack screws, two washers, and two nuts, all fabricated from durable steel with protective zinc and chromate plating to ensure long-lasting resistance against rust and wear.

With a unified coarse pitch (#4-40 UNC) thread configuration, the jack screws are built to withstand significant impact and tensile forces common in industrial environments. The 18.5 mm overall screw length provides flexibility for mounting across a wide range of connector sizes, making it versatile for both panel and cable installations. The kit's female configuration supports connectors with up to 50 contacts, enabling high-density electronic connectivity.

The washers included are designed as sacrificial wear pads which extend the operational life of the screws by preventing direct wear and facilitating easier maintenance. When washers show signs of wear, they can be promptly replaced without compromising the integrity of the connection.

Applications span industrial automation systems, robotics, medical equipment, and network switches, all demanding stable and vibration-resistant links between headers and ribbon connectors. The robust design ensures secure signal transmission and reliable connections even in environments subject to movement or mechanical stress.

3M's attention to quality in the 3341 Series ensures this kit performs consistently over time, offering reliability in demanding commercial and manufacturing settings. The kit is part of an extensive range of connector accessories that support rapid connection and disconnection, trusted by engineers for complex installations.

For additional compatible variants, the 3M range also includes alternatives such as long jack screw kits, pan head screws, and self-tapping mounting options for D-sub and mini-D connectors, supporting customization and adaptability across multiple interface types.
