ATE & ICT Test Probes

A popular application with a wide choice of series and head styles with centres from 50 mil to 100 mil. These probes are associated with in-circuit test fixtures and functional test fixtures.

For contacting lead free solder pads or very contaminated PCBs, a high progressive range of ATE probes are available. This range of high progressive series not only penetrates viscous residues, but provide a longer life cycle.

High Current Test Probes

High current probes are used when higher currents are involved. We can provide probes that are capable of handling currents from 10 A to 1000 A. Temperature sensors and specialized applications assisting with EV testing are also within our range. 

The applications for high-current probes are diverse and range from adapter construction and cable harness testing to special applications such as charging and discharging processes in battery production.

High current threaded probes are also available for a secure fit.

Short Travel & Battery Test Probes

Compact probes used for applications with limited space. The perfect solution for implementation of low-wear, detachable electrical contacts in products.

Solder tight versions are available allowing direct soldering onto PCB boards.

Various applications use battery contacts such as medical devices, military devices and battery charging applications.

Co-Axial & Kelvin Test Probes

Co-axial & Kelvin probes consist of two independent test probes which are insulated from each other. Also available in high current options.

Four-pin measurement in the smallest of spaces: coaxial contact pins with inner conductor as a sense pin, from the smallest pitches to the highest currents..

Switch Test Probes

Available in threaded and plug in options, these test probes are used primarily for cable testing, when a later change to installation height is required and component testing.

Electrical connection occurs via a connection to the connector pin of the switch probe and a connection to the receptacle. 

Threaded versions prevents the probe twisting out of the relevant receptacle.

Various tip styles, included insulated versions, are available to suit any application.
