SCREW-IN TEST PROBES

Screw-in test probes are often used to contact cable harnesses and plug connectors. They remain securely positioned in the receptacle even under challenging test conditions with vibrations or axial force. Screw-in test probes with thread have the designation ‘M’ at the end of the part number.

Cable harnesses are the central connection elements between various components in the automobile industry and mechanical engineering and supply these with either power or signals. To guarantee uninterrupted operation, high demands are placed on the cable harness as well as the plug connector used.

The cable harness has to pass various tests before it is fitted, these include: connection test, position test, push-back test, and function test.

A further area of application for screw-in probes is the contacting of plug connectors on various electronic devices, such car radios, control units, PCs, smart devices, and many more
