These FFC cable have a special punching – the so-called "side-catcher". These side-catchers are adapted to connectors of many different manufacturers, here is a selection: Hirose: FH52, FH65, FH40, FH41, FH48, FH28, FX16 Iriso: 9664, 9687S, 11500S, 9650S, 9640S, 9663S, 9664S, 9685S, 9691S, 9695S Kyocera: AVX 6288, 6251, 6808 Panasonic: AYF53 Molex: 501864-3091, 502231 Amphenol: 62674-301121ALF JAE: FI-X30M-NPB FCI: SFW30R-3STE1LF We would be pleased to supply you with the appropriate connectors.​
Pitch
FFC cables are available in the following grid dimensions: 0.50 mm, 0.80 mm, 1.00 mm 1.25 mm, 1.27 mm and 2.54 mm. The smallest available grid is 0.50 mm. The pitch dimensions of 0.50 mm and 1.00 mm are deemed to be standard.
Special types
As in many product ranges also FFCs are available in various special designs as there are: folded FFCs, shielded FFCs with/without grounded shield, PULL-tabs (assembling aid), ident print or since recently also black colored FFC cables or FFC with “sidecatcher” function e.g. for the HIROSE FH40 series.  There is a great variety. So please do not hesitate to contact us, we will support you.
UL-Styles
UL is an independent organization which analyses and certifies products as to their reliability. We offer cables according to the following UL-styles: UL2896/UL20624/UL20696/UL2643.
