MIL-DTL-38999 Series I PCB (PC Tail) Contacts

MIL-DTL-38999 Series I PCB Contacts

Milnec offers a number of size #22D, #22M, #20, #16, and #12 PCB contacts (also referred to as PC tail contacts or spill contacts) for mounting ruggedized MS27466, MS27656, MS27496, MS27505, and MS27468 military type receptacle connectors directly to printed circuit boards or flex cable. Termination is achieved by a long “tail” extending from the rear of the contact. The length of the contact “shoulder” and subsequent “tail” are often the determining factors in contact selection.

In addition to standard “on-the-shelf” PCB contacts, Milnec can also provide custom PCB contacts to fit any application design. Options include custom tail lengths, shoulder extensions, or 90° angled configurations. However, custom orders may be subject to longer lead times and minimum order quantities.

Contact arrangement diagrams are available for the most popular PCB contact configurations. These diagrams provide precise hole locations for printed circuit board manufacturing via exact coordinates. Please contact your authorized distributor for more information.
