BENEFITS OF THE BRUSH CONTACT
• Redundant current paths: 14-70 gas tight points
of contact per mated bunch
• Very smooth low friction interface
• Low mating forces: 1.5 oz. typical per contact,
70-90% lower than conventional contacts
• Long contact life: 100,000 cycles of mating and
unmating without performance degradation
• Documented intermittency free performance: No
10 nano-second discontinuities during
50,000,000 cycles of 0.010” displacement
• Impervious to fretting
• Contact interface meets M55302/166 thru /171
