The TE Connectivity 787004-3 is a jackscrew socket from the CHAMP series, designed as a board-mount screwlock accessory for CHAMP D-Sub connectors. It uses an M2 socket thread with an M2 screw, and the slotted drive allows field adjustment with a standard screwdriver. The 0.236" (6.00 mm) length below head sets the standoff height between the connector face and the PCB — enough clearance for most CHAMP right-angle or vertical-mount receptacles without bottoming out on the board.
Thread and Mechanical Fit
The M2 socket and M2 screw thread pair is the standard mechanical interface for CHAMP D-Sub screwlocks. This 787004-3 mates with the matching jackscrew on the mating half — typically a female screwlock on the cable-side connector. The slotted head means no special tooling; a #1 Phillips or flat-blade driver seats it. The 6.00 mm post length is measured from the underside of the head to the tip of the threaded portion, so it clears the PCB by that full dimension when the screw is tightened.
Compatibility and Use
This jackscrew is explicitly listed for use with CHAMP D-Sub connectors. That covers the full CHAMP family — standard-density, high-density, and shielded variants — as long as the connector body has the mating screwlock boss. It is not a generic D-Sub jackscrew; the M2 thread and post length are specific to the CHAMP interface. For a non-CHAMP D-Sub, check the thread size and standoff before substituting.
