TechNet Users,

We are presently attempting to pressfit a rectangular pin into a 
through-hole of an .062 inch thick PCB.  The dimensions and tolerances of 
the pin are as follows:
Length - .080 inches +/-.002 inches
Width - .032 inches +/- .001 inches
Depth - .125 inches +/- .002 inches
After the insertion process, the pressfit pin is wave soldered into place. 
 Therefore, all that is required of the pressfit pin is that it be retained 
in the through-hole during normal assembly handling until wave soldering.

What should the through-hole dimensions & tolerances be to properly pressfit 
the pin?

Thanks,
Bob Mykich
