Product details

1.00 mm Pitch, 18 Positions, Top Contact — FFC/FPC Footprint Fit

The SFW18R-2STE1LF: The 0.30 mm FFC/FPC thickness is specified — the contact beam is designed for that stack-up, not a thicker flex. The tin contact finish limits this to 20 mating cycles — fine for a semi-permanent internal harness, not for repeated field disconnect.

ZIF Actuation and Slide Lock — Cable Retention Without Force

Zero insertion force (ZIF) means the actuator opens the contact beams before the flex is inserted — no scraping of the pads, no insertion force on the cable. The slide lock then clamps the flex in place. In a vibration environment, the lock keeps the flex from backing out — but the tin contact finish and 20-cycle limit still apply.

RoHS compliant.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy SFW18R-2STE1LF and what is the lead time?

SFW18R-2STE1LF is sourced through independent distribution.

What is the pitch and position count of SFW18R-2STE1LF?

The pitch is 0.039" (1.00 mm) and the connector has 18 positions. This is a top-contact, right-angle SMT connector.

Is SFW18R-2STE1LF RoHS compliant?

Yes, it is RoHS compliant.

Does SFW18R-2STE1LF have a locking feature?

Yes, it has a slide lock that retains the FFC/FPC after ZIF actuation.

What is the mating cycle life of SFW18R-2STE1LF?

Rated for 20 mating cycles. The tin contact finish is the limiting factor — for applications requiring frequent disconnect, a gold-plated variant in the SFW-R series would be needed.
