D308 Series Shorting Links

Shorting links from Harwin can be temporary or permanent circuit bridges to assist with track layout on a PC board. Rather than adding a secondary layer to the subway under another track, the track can be bridged over instead. These links are manufactured using Ø1 mm wire and come in a choice of tin or gold finish, making them capable of carrying a 10 A current. The pitch of the tails is available in 5.08 mm, 6.35 mm, 10.16 mm, and 12.70 mm.

To assist with the fitting and removal of temporary shorting links, a range with insulated handles is also available in the gold finish. The plastic colors available are red, blue, and black, to assist with identification during on-board programming. The Ø1 mm tails are compatible with the PCB sockets offered by Harwin, making these simple connections easy to fit, easy to change, low-cost, and versatile.

These links are available in closed-top insulated and non-insulated (solderable) options with 5.08 mm, 10.16 mm, and 12.70 mm pitch and heights at 9.13 mm, 12 mm, 12.10 mm, and 12.70 mm.
