KEYSTONE Coil spring contacts are designed to slide into molded cases with no wire lead, serving as a direct placement onto a pcb. Devices meet increasing demands for higher energy, lower weight cylindrical battery components. Engineered with a contact design that adjusts to variations in battery length, devices ensure low contact resistance and dependable connectivity by adjusting to variations in battery length. Devices can serve as drop in replacements for standard leaf spring contacts and can accommodate cylindrical batteries styles including A, AA, AAA and CR2 cells, virtually eliminating the need to specify brand and style. Manufactured from .024” (.61mm) thick, steel wire and supplied with nickel plating, devices are supplied in a positive contact style (Cat. No 243 or 180) or negative contact style (Cat. No 242 or 179) and in a dual contact style (Cat. No 244 or 181).
