Samtec SSW Series Straight Through Hole PCB Socket, 34 Contacts, 2 Row, 2.54 mm Pitch, Solder, SSW-117-01-S-D

The Samtec SSW-117-01-S-D is a high-performance straight through hole PCB socket designed for robust and reliable board-to-board connections in electronic systems. With 34 contacts arranged across two rows and a 2.54 mm pitch, this socket is optimized for compatibility with common PCB layouts and connectors used in industrial and commercial electronics. It accommodates a wide range of applications, from general electronics to specialized equipment.

This socket utilizes Samtec's Tiger Buy contact system, employing gold-plated bronze contacts to deliver excellent electrical conductivity, high retention, and long-term reliability. The contacts are designed to secure connections with standard or low insertion force, accommodating different assembly preferences and applications. Through-hole tail configuration ensures strong mechanical stability when mounted to printed circuit boards, and is suitable for both automated and manual soldering processes.

The device is engineered for demanding electrical environments, featuring a 4.7 A current rating and 655 V voltage rating. Its liquid crystal polymer housing provides exceptional strength, chemical resistance, and dimensional stability under wide temperature cycles, with a functional range from -55°C up to 125°C. This makes it particularly well-suited for use in industrial controls, automation, instrumentation, and other critical sectors where stable connectivity and high material performance are required.

Installation is straightforward thanks to its straight pin orientation and through-hole mounting, while the socket’s female contact configuration enables it to mate with .025 inch square post terminals in compatible header setups. Engineers benefit from the flexibility to use this socket in both standard and mixed-technology boards. The SSW series supports both vertical and right-angle mounting approaches, further expanding its application scope.

Common use cases for the SSW-117-01-S-D PCB socket include board-to-board interconnections in electronic assemblies, signal and data transmission paths in control panels, and secure power delivery in modular systems. Its reliable performance makes it a staple in manufacturing, test and measurement, automation, and many custom electronics applications.
