FX26 series durable board-to-board connector

HIROSE Electric Co., Ltd., a global leader in advanced connector solutions, introduces the FX26 Series, an award-winning innovation recognized at CES 2020 (Vehicle Intelligence & Transportation category) and the JPCA Show in Japan. 

Engineered for demanding automotive and industrial applications, the FX26 Series delivers outstanding heat resistance, vibration durability, and compact performance. With an operating temperature range of -40°C to +140°C, it ensures reliability in harsh environments where conventional connectors fall short. 

The 1.0 mm pitch, low-profile floating design compensates for alignment errors with a ±0.7 mm tolerance in the X/Y directions and ±0.75 mm in Z. This floating structure significantly reduces the risk of contact failure caused by vibration—making it an ideal choice for next-generation vehicle electronics. 

Despite its compact size, the FX26 is easy to assemble and offers flexible design options. Available in 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60 contacts, with mated height variations of 15, 18, 20, 23, and 25 mm, it supports multiple board stacking configurations. The dual-point contact design enhances reliability, while premium materials provide exceptional thermal performance. 

As part of HIROSE’s FunctionMAX family, the FX26 Series is built to maximize functionality in board-to-board connections.
