Nowadays modern Press-fit pins contain a compliant mechanism that allows plastic deformation when the pin enters the hole. This mechanism compresses as the pressing tool forces the contact into a PCB hole. This compliance compensates the whole size tolerance, helps to prevent damage the PCB, keeps spring force for long term and permits repairs. Press-fit pin insertion into the plated hole creates a highly reliable, well accepted, gas tight connection.  

All recommendations according to the general technical specifications of the data-sheet have to be complied with. The responsibility for the applicability of customer specific products and use in a particular customer design is always within the authority of the customer.

Follow all instructions in the datasheet, especially:
• Drill-hole specifications.
• Wave and reflow soldering is not applicable.
• The maximum permissible torques must be complied with to prevent mechanical destruction.
• While press-fit process PCB should be supported against bending.
• Chip formation due to material displacement is permitted.
