Overview


Molex's CLIK-Mate system is ideal for devices that require connectors with robust features and the ability to carry more signal lines in less space. CLIK-Mate connectors are available in three pitch sizes: 2.00, 1.50 and 1.25mm to meet various high-density application needs.

CLIK-Mate connectors feature a positive inner locking system that provide secure mating retention and an audible "click" to confirm mating. A tuning-fork terminal design provides low insertion force and a secure mating contact. Reinforced metal solder tabs ensure a secure PCB retention and provide solder joint strain relief.

The CLIK-mate 1.25mm pitch connector saves 60% of space versus the 2.00mm version. The 1.50mm version features the widest variety of choices, including single- and dual-row types, SMT and through-hole versions and a bottom-entry option. The 2.00mm version offers the highest current carrying capability of 3.0A and 250V. All versions now available in various plating options, including; gold-over-nickel, tin and tin-over-nickel.
