Sale Closed: Looking for 0.5mm Gold Pin Suppliers

I'm looking for some 0.5 mm pins suppliers. Pins must looks as the gold in the attachment. Does somebody work in some company that produce them ?

Thank you;

Sounds like a good job for Google. Have you tried any of the major connector suppliers such as Tyco or Molex?

1. How many?
2. Material specification?
3. Functional requirement? (electrical resistance, solderability? shear strength? tensile strength? burrs? )
4. Continuing or one-time requirement?
5. Where did the original sample come from?

How many?

That's the big question. The pins will probably have to be purchased in quantity because they're not normally considered replacement items.

Material specification?

Most likely nickel and gold-plated beryllium copper, although the plating might be palladium-nickel with a gold flash. It appears that the OP is trying to fix a broken socket in some sort of test fixture, and the likelihood is that the socket itself will need to be replaced as a whole unless she's prepared to buy about 10,000 pins. The other option might be to find a connector that uses those pins and cannibalize it.

I'm thinking they purchased a test pad for a test device and the pins are wearing. The probability is the best bet is to buy a new test pad.

But - If it's an in-house fabricated test fixture, there *should* be a print for it. That pring and/or the BOM (Bill of Materials) for the print should provide some clues as to where to go to procure them.

Raquel - Can you give us some more details?
