TE Connectivity's (TE) second generation GRACE INERTIA 2.5mm pitch connectors
features advanced design concepts to facilitate more stable, reliable and durable
connection. GRACE INERTIA 2.5mm connectors can be used in a wide range of large
electrical products, from home appliances to vending machines that require wire-to-
board signal conduction application. For high volume manufactures, tape in ammo
box packaging is available, which better supports board assembly operations. These
innovative connectors are designed to help customers reduce human error during
assembly. The inertia locking mechanism prevents defective products caused by half-
mating. The Terminal Position Assurance (TPA) helps to ensure that the contacts are
properly seated in the housing and provides an extra measure of protection against
contact back-out. The new design structure also cuts down on contact insertion force
by as much as 59% during assembly. Ergonomic design and lanceless contacts, which
prevent snagging or entanglement, improve safety and efficiency during operation.
GRACE INERTIA 2.5mm connectors also offer 2 through 8 positions and multiple
colors and physical keying options making it easier to identify connecots and avoid
mismatching.
