Overview

The Keystone 5203 is a single-ended spring contact designed to establish a reliable electrical connection in battery compartments. It is specifically engineered for use in molded plastic cases where the battery is self-contained. The spring mechanism compensates for variations in battery length and ensures consistent contact pressure over time.

Why Choose This Part

The 5203 features a spring-loaded design that maintains high contact force even after repeated battery replacements. Its compact dimensions of 7.5mm by 21mm allow for dense packaging in small handheld devices. The nickel-plated steel construction provides excellent corrosion resistance and low contact resistance.
