Thread Screw Pogo Pin Solutions

We support both metric (M2, M3, M4, M5, M6) and imperial thread standards (UNC, UNF). The most common metric threads for pogo pins are M3 and M4, which provide an excellent balance between mechanical strength and compact size. We can also manufacture custom thread pitches and profiles to match your specific mounting requirements or existing hardware.

The recommended installation torque varies by thread size. For M3 threads, we typically recommend 0.3-0.5 Nm; for M4, 0.5-0.8 Nm; and for M5, 0.8-1.2 Nm. Over-tightening can damage the internal spring mechanism or deform the threads, while under-tightening may result in loosening during vibration. We provide detailed installation instructions with torque specifications for each product model.

Yes, thread screw pogo pins are specifically designed for high-vibration applications such as automotive, aerospace, and industrial machinery. The threaded mounting provides superior mechanical retention compared to press-fit or surface-mount alternatives. For extreme vibration environments, we recommend using thread-locking compounds or lock washers to prevent loosening. Our pins are tested to withstand vibration per MIL-STD-202 and automotive standards.

For outdoor and harsh environment applications, we recommend stainless steel construction with gold plating for the contact surfaces. Stainless steel provides excellent corrosion resistance, while gold plating ensures reliable electrical contact even after exposure to moisture and temperature cycling. For marine or chemical environments, we can provide additional protective coatings or sealed designs with O-rings to prevent contamination of the internal spring mechanism.
