Bead Electronics is proud to manufacture end to end contact pins, wire contact pins, and hollow contact pins. This video gives you an overview of our Headquarters in Milford, CT.
A feature in our Tandem Pin® series, the True Grip Pin has a square thru-hole section for secure placement into a PCB and a round flange to provide a consistent seating plane giving your solder a large surface for reliable surface mount processing.
The bead-formed manufacturing process, called swaging, yields superior value. That's because it's a high-speed, virtually scrapless cold-forming process capable of producing small metal parts that are dimensionally consistent and inexpensive.
