Socket Triple Press Ring Construction

Triple press rings are a worldwide exclusive from QA. We introduced double press rings in 1988 to meet the increased pointing accuracy demands of the ATE industry. In 1996 we further increased the performance and versatility of the double press ring design by adding a third ring.

Triple press ring sockets are available in our 039-16, 050-T25 and 050-R25 series product lines and offer the following advantages:

Pointing Accuracy: Like double press ring sockets, triple press ring sockets offer true alignment with the socket-mounting hole. Keeping at least two press rings in the mounting hole eliminates the possibility of the socket tilting which may occur with single press ring sockets. This is critical for applications which require tight pointing accuracy. (Figure A)

Reduces Inventory: Because the triple press rings cover the entire range of set heights, it is not necessary to calculate specific set heights before placing your order. This feature enables you to reduce your inventory levels by carrying a single socket for all your requirements. (Figure B)

   
   

Very Wide Set Height Ranges: Covering the common range of set heights with double press rings requires multiple sockets with the rings in different locations. Triple press rings allow set heights from flush (.000) up to .270 [6.86] in plates as thin as 5/16 [7.937] with just a single socket. (Figure C)
