Gold Plating

------Question for DT13-12PA-G003 Please Put your question below------

Is the gold plating on this connector the full pin length or is it selectively plated just on the mating contact? I’m asking as the pins are exposed on the rear of this connector (90° bend) and there is concern that corrosion in this area may be of concern.

Welcome to DigiKey’s TechForum

The Gold plating will be on the mating side of the contact and Tin on the PCB side. I believe the 90deg bend area will just be tin. Unfortunately we did not have stock to check to be certain.

Thank you for the quick feedback!
