Introduction
Your Complete IDC Connector Source
ADVANCED DESIGN & QUALITY
Contact design pierces the cable insulation,
providing a reliable gas-tight termination, with
positive electrical characteristics
Contacts accommodate solid or stranded wire
Single beam contact face makes early contact with
mating pin to give maximum contact wipe
Industry-standard P.C.B. footprints provide easy
circuit routing and efficient use of board real estate
Popular header variations, such as press-fit, straight
(vertical) and right-angle (horizontal) through-hole, for
a variety of board thicknesses
Headers in 4-wall configurations for pin protection
A FULL RANGE OF FEATURES
AND ACCESSORIES
Lock & ejects that can accommodate sockets
with or without strain relief mechanisms, to avoid
stressing cable terminations
Feed-through or closed-end sockets accommodate
daisy chain or cable-end applications
Ridged covers and marked #1 contact positions that
provide accurate cable to contact alignment

Available in industry standard sizes of 10-64 positions. They
mate to Elco Series 8289, 8293, 8380 and 8383 headers,
as well as other industry compatible connectors. An option-
al strain relief, which can be easily fitted, eliminates stress
on the cable. An in-contact polarizing key is available to
ensure positive polarization. Contacts are copper alloy for
added reliability, and are designed to mate to 0.024"
(0.60mm) to 0.025" (0.64mm) square pins. The contact
design facilitates maximum wipe on the header pins. (early

Transition Connector
Series 8292
Transition connectors are available in industry standard
sizes of 10-60 positions. This IDC connector provides a
fast, permanent, and economical termination of ribbon
cable to PC boards. It can be used as either a daisy chain
or end type termination connector. Pin lengths are available
to suit 0.063" (1.6mm) or 0.126" (3.2mm) PC boards.
Designed to accommodate the industry standard 4 row
PC Board hold pattern, the connector also incorporates
standoffs which enable efficient flux washing and
de-gassing to take place.

TOGGLE PRESS
The Elco toggle press is capable of terminating 125 con-
nectors per hour. The press features long horned guides for
the ram which provides precise alignment. The press is fit-
ted with a return mechanism allowing the return of the ram
to its starting position after its entire extension. An offset
hand lever permits good operator visibility of the work. A
micro-meter attachment to the ram is factory set. The range
of platens for the toggle press is identical to those for the
pneumatic press, thereby allowing the use of existing tool-
ing when upgrading to a pneumatic press.

PNEUMATIC PRESS
The Elco pneumatic press is a compact, high precision
press providing a fast and accurate method of terminating
IDC connectors. The press is capable of terminating 250
connectors per hour and a precision slide table allows all
parts to be loaded outside the termination area. The press
features service-free bearings and guides. Low mainte-
nance and a favorable noise level of less than 75 dBA. The
ram incorporates a micrometer adjustment which is
factory set.
A range of platens is available to suit each series of IDC
connectors.
Under certain terms, arrangements exist for this press to be
leased or loaned by customers. Please consult our sales
representative for further information and outright purchase
price.
