The press-fit termination means this socket is designed for solderless assembly into a plated-through hole — the compliant pin compresses on insertion and holds by interference fit, giving a gas-tight joint that survives thermal cycling better than a soldered connection in high-current backplane or power distribution applications. As a female socket, it accepts the mating male pin from the corresponding header. ## Packaging and Line Feed Supplied in tray packaging, this socket is intended for manual or semi-automated placement rather than high-speed tape-and-reel feed. For a contract manufacturer running a press-fit line, the tray format is standard — the sockets are typically picked and inserted by a press-fit machine with a tray feeder or placed by hand for low-volume builds. Confirm the tray quantity against your BOM line count before committing. ## Mating and Fit This is a female receptacle socket, so it mates with the corresponding male header pin from the Coeur Sentrality 204316 series. The press-fit tail is sized for a standard plated-through hole in the PCB — the hole diameter and board thickness must match the pin geometry specified in the product drawing for proper retention and insertion force. No crimp tool or wire preparation is involved; the connection is made directly to the board.","metaTitle":"Molex 2043160006 Coeur Sentrality Press-Fit Socket, Female","metaDescription":"Molex 2043160006 press-fit female receptacle socket, Coeur Sentrality 204316 series.
