Features ––––––––––––––––––––––––
• Secure locking device
The housing has a locking device to prevent accidental
disconnection because of routing of wires or of vibration, and
also reverse and different circuit numbers mating.
• Interchangeable between crimp and IDC socket
Both crimp and IDC sockets use the same headers and wire-towire mating halves.
• Secondary retainers
Secondary retainers enhance safety in case of partial insertion
or accidental release of the contact.
• Harness variation
PAL, wire-to-wire crimp style connector, increases wire harness variation.

• Highly reliable contact
Based upon wire-to-board crimp style PA
connectors, the PA series family of
connector have been expanded to meet the
requirement of complex wire harness of
2.0mm (.079") pitch connectors with secure
locking mechanism thanks to the
additional line up of wire-to-board IDC style
PAF connectors and wire-to-wire crimp
style PAL connectors.
The box contact supplies stable contact performance even under
conditions of vibration, distortion, low voltage or low current.
• Insertion guide mechanism
Header has housing insertion guides for easy and secure insertion.
• Flanged press pin
Top entry type header has flanged press pins, preventing
accidental removal of the pins that might result from the
distorted unmating especially in the case of small no. of circuits.
PAF connector
• The industry’s first secure lock IDC connectors
By separating ID section and secure lock section, the industry’s first
secure lock specification has been achieved for IDC that was said
to be impossible. Our fully automatic IDC machines, BCD-M5BP
(for simple harness) and CAM-M12B, SAD-M12E (for multiharness), can be applied for harness making.

• Metallic strain relief
Metallic strain relief on the contact securely grips wire insulation that
can avoid direct stress of vibration or impact. The same grip strength
as insulation barrel of crimp style contact could be achieved.

Recognized E60389
The new four locking points design ensures wire retention force
of every direction that is almost superior to contact retention
force of crimp style connectors. It also completely covers
exposed terminated ID contact.
PAL connector
• The industry’s first wire to wire 2.0mm (.078")
pitch retainer mountable type connector.
• Either with or without panel lock can be
selected according to application.
