Mill-Max now offers a 7” mini reel to accommodate 8 & 12 mm carrier tapes.
 
Offers receptacles (discrete sockets) on carrier tape per EIA-481 to feed automated pick-and-place equipment. A 7” reel holds about one quarter the parts of a 13” reel. Is more economic and convenient for smaller volume customers.

Two types of receptacles are available on carrier tape: surface-mount, flat types, which sit on the    surface of the PCB where the pin or component lead plugs-in parallel to the PCB; and thru-hole types where the lead plugs-in perpendicular to the PCB. Thru-hole receptacles are intrusive reflow soldered.

Thru-hole (tubular) receptacles have an Organic Fibre Plug barrier which prevents solder paste or flux from contaminating the spring contact. After soldering, the barrier is pushed out of the receptacle when the device is plugged in.

Lead free plating options are available. Instead of traditional tin/lead plating on the receptacle’s shell and contact, a pure matte tin with oxide and whisker inhibitors can be specified.
