The contacts are tin-plated phosphor bronze with 80.0 µin (2.03 µm) of tin, rated for 30 mating cycles. That cycle count is typical for internal harnesses or one-time assembly — not for frequent field reconnection. The 0.5 A per-contact current rating suits signal-level circuits; a flipped flex or wrong cable thickness will short the wrong row. The housing is black LCP, glass-filled, rated UL94 V-0. Solder retention tabs hold the connector during reflow. ## Cable Thickness and Orientation — Match the Actuator The cable end must be straight (not angled) and the contacts are on the top side — a bottom-contact cable folded for top-contact will short the wrong row. The actuator must match the cable thickness; a 0.30 mm cable in a 0.33 mm slot may lose retention. It is RoHS compliant.","metaTitle":"F518-1A7A1-11006 Amphenol ICC (FCI) FFC/FPC Connector","metaDescription":"Amphenol ICC (FCI) Aorora F518 FFC/FPC connector, 6 positions, 1.00mm pitch, 0.5A, tin contacts, 30 mating cycles.
