Tin Contact Finish — Cycle Life and Duty
The 2314875-5: The tin-on-tin mating interface is 118.1 µinch (3.00 µm) thick — heavy tin plating that handles 50–100 mating cycles before fretting wear becomes a concern. For a product that gets mated once at assembly and stays mated, tin is cost-effective. For quarterly field-service disconnects, gold is the better call.
Mating Header — What It Connects To
For vibration environments, a header with a locking ramp or a secondary retention feature is recommended.
