FPC 0.5mm Pitch 2.0H Flip-lock Gold-plated

The FPC 0.5mm Pitch 2.0H Flip-lock Gold-plated is a fine-pitch board-to-FPC socket for equipment where the flex circuit must sit close to the board yet stay serviceable. Its 0.5mm contact pitch lets a high-count flex route into a compact footprint, while the flip-lock lid opens flat so the cable drops in without force and clamps shut for a secure hold. Contacts are finished with a thin gold flash over nickel, which keeps the link stable across the rated current and through repeated connect cycles. The two-piece LCP body, a natural-color base and a black lid, holds its shape through reflow and meets the UL94V-0 flame class. With an operating window of -40 to 120°C, the part fits consumer, industrial, and outdoor builds that need a small, rework-friendly flex interface.

FPC 0.5mm Pitch 2.0H Flip-lock Gold-plated

Product Features

FPC 0.5mm Pitch 2.0H Flip-lock Gold-plated — build details that matter in practice:

Flip-Lock Lid — The lid hinges open to free the contact gap, the FPC seats with near-zero insertion force, and closing the lid clamps the flex so it will not walk out under vibration.

Two-Piece LCP Body — A natural-color housing and a black cover are both molded from LCP rated UL94V-0; the material stays dimensionally stable through the soldering profile.

Gold-Flash Over Nickel — CuSn terminals carry a 50 microinch nickel underplate with a 1 microinch gold flash on the contact and solder areas, giving corrosion resistance without a thick gold build.

Tin-Finished Solder Tab — A CuSn tab with nickel underplate and 100 microinch tin supports mechanical anchoring and a stable ground path at the board.

Electrical Limits — Rated 50V AC/DC at 0.5A per contact, with 40 milliohm max contact resistance, 200V AC withstanding, and 500 megohm min insulation.

Application Scenarios

FPC 0.5mm Pitch 2.0H Flip-lock Gold-plated fits where a thin flex must stay reachable after assembly:

Wearable and Foldable Devices — A 0.5mm pitch lets the flex hinge route through a tight hinge area, and the flip lid means a technician can open the joint to replace the cable rather than scrap the board.

Outdoor and Automotive Modules — The -40 to 120°C window and UL94V-0 LCP let the socket sit in enclosures that see sun, cold, and under-hood heat without a separate high-temp variant.

Field-Serviceable Instruments — Test and medical handhelds benefit when the flip-lock can be reopened for cable swaps during calibration or repair, cutting downtime versus glued or drawer types.

Why Choose FPC 0.5mm Pitch 2.0H Flip-lock Gold-plated

FPC 0.5mm Pitch 2.0H Flip-lock Gold-plated — why teams specify it:

Flame-Class Moldings — Both the natural housing and the black lid meet UL94V-0, so the part clears the flame-spread requirement common in consumer and automotive intake checks.

Plating Built for Reuse — The gold flash over nickel keeps the contact surface from oxidizing through storage and many mating cycles, which protects field reliability without a costly full-gold finish.

Stable Through Reflow — LCP holds its form and the lid geometry stays aligned during the soldering profile, so placement yield does not depend on a post-reflow adjustment.

Documented Plating Stack — CuSn terminals with specified nickel and gold or tin finishes give a plating system that purchasing can qualify against a drawing rather than a sample.

FAQs

Q: How should the flip-lock be actuated during assembly?

A: Lift the black lid to open the contact gap, lay the FPC in with the pads facing the upper contacts, then press the lid shut. The lid clamps the flex with light force and no insertion pressure on the cable.

Q: What electrical and temperature ratings does this connector carry?

A: The FPC 0.5mm Pitch 2.0H Flip-lock Gold-plated is rated 50V AC/DC at 0.5A per contact, with 40 milliohm max contact resistance, 200V AC withstanding voltage, 500 megohm min insulation resistance, and an operating range of -40 to 120°C.

Q: Can a 1-micron gold flash really protect the contact?

A: Yes. The 1 microinch gold sits over a 50 microinch nickel underplate that blocks base-metal migration, so the contact face stays solderable and low-resistance through storage and repeated mating.

Q: What makes the flip-lock practical for field service?

A: The lid reopens by hand, so a technician can swap or reseat the FPC during repair or calibration without desoldering the socket. That shortens downtime on handheld and instrument builds.
