OneBlade Connectors

The modular OneBlade 1.00mm-Pitch Wire-to-Board Connector System with friction lock and spacious pick-and-place area combines design simplicity with speed and ease of assembly.

Product Highlights


 Current:  Circuits:Wire AWG:
up to 2.5A2 - 828 - 32

Features and Benefits


Modular design provides versatility to lower inventory management costs

Combining both functions as a vertical or right-angle connector, the OneBlade connector’s modular housing/terminal/nail design requires fewer parts inventory maintenance leading to improved production efficiency while ensuring stocking availability amidst supply chain disruptions.

Tapeless and friction-lock-based system streamlines assembly and improves output efficiency

Doing away with the need for cover tape not only saves operator time when it comes to removing the tape after mounting, but also eliminates the risk of having any tape left behind assembly processes. Additionally, the connector’s friction lock ensures smooth insertion and withdrawal of the connector during assembly processing. These contribute significantly to efficiencies achieved at customer production lines.

Single connector housing used interchangeably as a vertical or right-angle header:
Simplifies parts inventory management

Integrating both nail and terminal in a single part :
Reduces the number of loose parts serving each function

Single connector header design:
Singular header design can be used in vertical or right-angle mating and mounting orientations

Friction lock:
Provides better mating retention of header and harness

Dual-function soldertab:
Serves as both fitting nail and soldertail in both vertical and right-angle version connectors

Dual-point contact design:
Offers secure electrical contact and reliability

Overview


Designers need to identify the right connector at the earliest time possible (and fast) in their design-in activities. OneBlade’s simple modular design with vertical and right-angle mating orientations make for easy design configuration in any wire-to-board application.

Customers are looking for connectors that deliver assembly efficiencies in their production lines. OneBlade connector designs provide the space needed for pick-and-place operations without having to manually remove Kapton tape after mounting.

Customers need to be assured of high electrical contact reliability for disruption-free operations. The dual-point contact design provides the needed contact wipe and electrical reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions


What is the advantage of the spacious pick-and-place area on the connector?
With a spacious pick-and-place area on the connector, no cover or Kapton tape is needed on the connector. This saves time and additional processes associated with having to remove the cover tape after SMT mounting during assembly.

What is the advantage of identical vertical and right-angle headers?
The use of common housing, nail and terminal components in a modular design enhances productivity while optimizing materials usage and component supplies.
