Product Overview and Functions
- Type: 26-pin Male IDC (piercing type), with plastic shell and spring-loaded locking mechanism.
- Termination Method: IDC (Insulation Displacement Connector) piercing type, directly pierces the insulation layer of flat ribbon cable, eliminating the need for stripping or soldering.
- Main Functions:
- Fast and reliable fabrication of SCSI cable assemblies.
- Enables high-density parallel data transmission (supports SCSI protocol).
- Spring-loaded locking mechanism facilitates quick and easy insertion, removal, and securing.
- Suitable for mass production of cable assemblies, offering high assembly efficiency.
Materials and Structure
- Insulator/Housing: PBT + 30% GF (glass fiber reinforced), black, UL94 V-0 flame retardant.
- Plastic Housing/Hood: Engineering plastics (PBT/ABS), providing mechanical protection and stress release.
- Terminals/Contacts: Copper Alloy, Gold Plating on the contact area (5U" or higher), with a sharp-edged IDC piercing edge.
- Latch: Spring Latch for quick locking and releasing.
- Structural Features:
- Spacing: 1.27mm (0.05 inch) High density.
- IDC piercing type, suitable for flat ribbon cables (typically AWG28 or AWG30).
- With plastic cap and stress relief structure.

Key Features
- IDC Piercing Type: No wire stripping required; directly pierces the strip cable insulation layer, resulting in high assembly efficiency and suitability for mass production.
- Spring-loaded Locking Clip: Quick insertion and removal for convenient operation.
- Main Applications: High-density parallel data transmission applications such as machine vision, servo control, PLC, testing instruments, and medical equipment.
Technical Documentation and Other Information
- Technical Documentation: A complete datasheet (including dimension drawings, IDC crimping specifications, recommended Ribbon Cable specifications, insertion and extraction forces, etc.) is available upon request.
- Advantages: IDC piercing assembly is quick and solder-free, suitable for mass production of wire harnesses.
- Notes: Specifically designed for flat ribbon cables.
- The spring-loaded locking mechanism is suitable for moderate vibration environments; for environments with strong vibration, consider the screw-lock version.
- The main difference from the previous "soldering" version lies in the termination method (IDC piercing vs. soldering).

FAQ
Q: Difference between Piercing Type and Wire Bonding Type
A: Piercing Type: No soldering iron required, direct pressure on flat ribbon cables, high efficiency, suitable for batch production. Wire Bonding Type: Single-strand welding, easy maintenance, higher labor costs.
Q: Compatible Cables
A: Dedicated 1.27mm pitch 26P flat ribbon cable, wire gauge 26~28AWG, standard cable thickness 0.8~1.0mm
Q: Compatible Cables
A: Dedicated 1.27mm pitch 26P flat ribbon cable, wire gauge 26~28AWG, standard cable thickness 0.8~1.0mm.
Q: Interface Compatibility
A: Standard HPCN 26P male and female plug-in compatible, not interoperable with MDR26 and VHDCI, only compatible with HPCN26P of the same specification.
Q: Suitable Scenarios for Spring-loaded Type
A: Cabinet internal wiring, servo control lines, PLC communication, motion control boards, medium vibration equipment, tool-free plug-and-play fixing.
