I have been asking the same questions even directly to the press-fit manufacturer themselves and there is no conclusive answer. Except to drown myself in the piles and piles of information from their website and often end up going round and round.

To quote from Gerry : " Godd hunting"

Hi Victor,

Second time is the charm.

Press fit pins are highly engineered and have many specifications associated with them.
Each press pin manufacturer's design tends to be unique as a lot of them are patented.

The best answer to your questions is to tell you to find out the specific press pin manufacturer's part number for the pin that you are dealing with, go to their web site, and get the drawings and specifications for the specific pin you want to know about.

I think you will be surprised at the level of detail you will receive for your questions plus the attributes you have not asked for ....... yet.

Good hunting.

Gerry

Fellow TechNetters:

My initial inquiry, 2011, did NOT yield any useful information. Therefore, I pose the same question again in hope that additional reader will provide comments and/or their experience with Press Fit Pins.
I look forward to hear from the readers.

What is the acceptable depth of the main eye lid with regards to total board thickness? I have seen a variety of depths used.
What is the preferred raw board surface finish? Again, I have seen a variety.

Victor,

Rigo,

I did NOT get any concrete guidelines and/or specification for Press Pin Fit leads. The specs that are out there are confidential.

Victor,

Hi Victor,

Did you get an answer to your question?

I'm interested because we are looking into qualifying press fit connectors for flight hardware and don't know of any specs that provide requirements for the process.

Best regards,

Rigo Garcia

Subject: [TN] Press Fit Pins guideline

Fellow TechNetters:

What is the current IPC guideline/specification for insertion depth of Press Fit Pins. I aware that the Press Fit Pins configuration might vary a little, just as well as board thickness. What is the acceptance criteria I should look for visually and during x-ray imaging.

Victor,
