What This Jackscrew Does in a D-Sub Assembly
The Amphenol 863001060LF is a jackscrew socket for standard D-sub connectors — the threaded hardware that pulls the plug and receptacle together and locks them against vibration. It uses a 4-40 UNC thread on both the socket and the screw, which is the standard thread for standard-density D-subs. The overall length below the head is 0.327" (8.30mm), with 0.272" (6.90mm) of that being the threaded portion that engages the mating screw. It ships in Bulk packaging.
Thread Size and Hardware Compatibility
The 4-40 thread is the standard UNC size for standard-density D-sub connectors — not the metric M3 found on some high-density or European-sourced shells. If your panel hardware or mating connector uses UNC 4-40 jackscrews, this is the direct fit. If your assembly uses M3 hardware, the sibling 863001061TLF (same 0.327" length, 4-40 socket but with an M3 screw) is the one to reach for.
