Hello,
I need to know if there is a socket that will fit the following relay:
255-3545-ND
ALZ11B12W
RELAY GEN PURPOSE SPDT 16A 12V
(I’m thinking just straight pins so I can solder in the socket and then replace the relay as needed.)
Please and thank you!
Hello sales,
We do not have a full socket that is designed to hold this relay.
Click here for some single pins, that will fit the 0.5mm pin of the relay.
Please check the datasheets to verify compatibility to your application.
I know it has been some time since this question was asked but I would like to add my thoughts anyway. It may just help someone along the way.
While it is true that ALZ11B12W is not meant to work with a socket, I found other relays have the same footprint, have the same or better ratings, and are socketable.

I found some relay sockets that have the same dimensional footprints.

I haven’t any doubt that the pins on the Panasonic relay will align with the pins on the TE Connectivity Socket. After looking at many different suppliers and data sheets I have concluded that there is most likely a standard of a 3.5mm length on the pins since I did not find any that deviated.
Since there are different suppliers offering sockets and relays on the links above I should note that using them together could result in a combination that would not be valid for warranty purposes but if the goal is to solve a problem, this might just be the ticket.
Thank you!
I appreciate that! Product ordered.
