FGS Header Image
The FG-S Connectors have anisotropic conduction properties. Thin metal wires are embedded with a vertical orientation within the silicone rubber on 0.10 mm centers. Low resistance and high current carrying capacity make this series very versatile for most typical interconnect applications.

The basic FG-S design is one row of gold-plated tips of Phosphor Bronze wires embedded in silicone rubber which will connect two parallel sets of contact, both having one row of contact pads.
