SWaP continues to be a challenge for designers and manufacturers. As systems continue to be integrated into rugged environments and face ever growing shock and vibration requirements, it is critical to have sufficient printed circuit board retention. Engineers have faced a tradeoff between force and the size of the Card Lok; historically greater clamp force has only been available with larger profile Card Loks. Larger Card Loks have traditionally required more space in the enclosure, were heavier and consumed valuable board space. Pentair has expanded the High Clamp Force retainer family to address these challenges. Its small and light-weight design Card Loks provide industry-leading board retention that is ideal for defense, space and aerospace applications. Designed to be a drop-in replacement for most applications currently using standard Card Loks. They have the same profile, height, mounting location and options, and optional features such as a visual indicator and lock patch.

• High Clamp Force Card Loks provide on average 3x the clamping force of similarly sized Card Loks
• Industry-leading board retention in a small form factor
• High performance low weight design
• Maximizes board and cold wall space
• Ideal for rugged applications with high shock and vibration requirements
