This product has been designed for flow solder only.
The Type 51 Series is designed for flow soldering only. If Hand Soldering is essential please take extreme care
when applying solder.
Do not overheat the terminal by prolonged exposure to heat otherwise intermittent operation could result.
Dimensions are in millimetres
unless otherwise specified.
