3 steps to the right productAll products

Find the right product for your project

What type of connection should your Powerelement provide?

step 1/3

Choose the diameter for your connection (in mm)

step 2/3

Choose the mounting method for your Powerelement (optional).

step 3/3

Soldering

i
In the SMT process, the Powerelement is soldered to the surface of the PCB; in the THT process, it is inserted through holes in the PCB and soldered from below. In the THR process, the Powerelements are placed in the plated-through holes of the PCB filled with solder paste and soldered.

Press-fit

i
In the massive press-fit technology the pin is pressed into the electrically plated through-hole of the PCB, deforming it and creating a gas-tight cold weld joint for excellent electrical connections. The flexible press-fit technology primarily deforms the pins, creating a gas-tight contact point.
