CONTA-CLIP
ISTLZ 950
The ISTLZ 950 series is a range of horizontal male pin connector blocks with a 5.08 mm pitch, available in pole counts from at least 2 through 17. For example, the ISTLZ 950/9/5.08‑H GN features 9 poles across a width of approximately 47.7 mm, while widths scale accordingly for other pole counts. Each contact pin is around 1.0–1.05 mm in diameter, requires a 1.4 mm PCB drill hole, and has a length of roughly 3.5 mm. The housing is polyamide 6.6 (UL 94 V‑0) with a CTI rating of 600, insulation resistance ≥ 1 × 10^13 Ω·cm, glow‑wire ratings GWFI 850 °C / GWIT 775 °C, and supports typical wave‑soldering (265 °C for 3–4 s).
The ISTLZ 950 connectors are rated for 12 A at up to 250 V, with an impulse voltage rating of 4 kV, contamination degree 3, and overvoltage category III, meeting UL 1059, cUL CSA 22.2 No. 158, and VDE EN 61984 approvals, with plug‑in lifecycle of at least 100 mating cycles. The ISTLZ 950 series is used to create pluggable PCB-mounted interfaces in relay modules, interface circuits, power control boards, and automation equipment. The horizontal pin orientation provides low-profile mating with female socket counterparts (like PKBZ/PKB 950), facilitating easy module replacement or maintenance. Designers utilise these when layout density, secure high-current PCB interfacing, and mechanical robustness are required, especially in industrial control cabinets, power electronics assemblies, or retrofit configurations in machinery and building infrastructure.
