6-Pin Power Tap with 6-32 Screw
The 55323-5: It uses a 6-32 threaded screw connection — the same thread as a standard #6 machine screw — to clamp a ring terminal or busbar lug directly to the board. The tin-lead contact finish mates with the copper pad; the solder termination secures the body to the PCB. This is a fixed-position power distribution point, not a signal header: each pin is a single terminal post, so the 6 pins give you six independent connection points for power or ground distribution on a single board.
Screw Not Included — What That Means
The listing explicitly states 'Screw not Included' — the 6-32 threaded hole is there, but you supply the screw. This is common for power taps where the user already has a preferred screw length or head style for their ring terminal stack-up. A standard 6-32 pan-head or binding-head machine screw works; the depth of the threaded insert determines the max screw length that bottoms out without damaging the PCB.
RoHS Status and Compliance
The 55323-5 is RoHS non-compliant due to the tin-lead contact finish. This is a legacy part — the tin-lead plating was standard before the RoHS transition.
