Harwin Shorting Link Straight Male Red Closed Top, 2 Way, 1 Row, 10.16 mm Pitch, Brass, D3088-99

Harwin D3088-99 is a high-performance shorting link featuring a straight male design, a closed top insulated housing, and a distinctive red color for convenient identification in electronic assemblies. The shorting link is engineered with a two-way, one-row arrangement and a standard 10.16 mm pitch, making it especially useful for compact and reliable interconnection solutions on printed circuit boards.

One of the standout aspects of the D3088-99 is its use of a color-coded, polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) UL94V-0 housing, which enhances both mechanical strength and insulation. The gold-plated brass contacts deliver exceptional conductivity and corrosion resistance, supporting consistent electrical performance even after repeated insertions.

With a straight male orientation, this shorting link is easily installed into compatible PCB sockets for hardware programming or temporary signal linking. The closed top design improves safety and minimizes the risk of accidental contact, helping to ensure circuit protection. At 15.1 mm long, 12 mm wide, and 3.2 mm deep, its precise dimensions allow for straightforward integration into standard hardware, enabling streamlined board layouts.

Rated for up to 10 A of current, the D3088-99 is suitable for robust applications involving either signal switching or power bridging. It has a 1 mm diameter contact system, as part of the Harwin D308 series, and the male contacts are finished with gold plating for high reliability.

Common applications for this type of shorting link include use in industrial control panels, test set-ups, laboratory interface boards, automated systems, and hardware programming environments where secure, removable shorting links are required. The insulated versions like the D3088-99 are ideal where solderless operation is preferred, while uninsulated versions can be used for permanent soldered linking.

This product, manufactured in Hong Kong, adheres to rigorous standards for electrical and mechanical performance and is widely supported in professional PCB connector and wire housing inventories. The Harwin brand is known for reliability and precision in interconnect solutions across electronics, manufacturing, automation, and laboratory equipment sectors.
