Large Pogo Pins
Need plugs that won’t break or disconnect? Large pogo pins are pretty much the only answer. These spring-loaded connectors work when normal ones give up on you. They keep medical equipment and machines working. They even get cars running.
We’ve been making these critical parts for a really long time. So when it comes to large pogo pins, we’ve got you. You’re in the right spot.
What are Large Pogo Pins?
Large diameter pogo pins are springy electrical contacts that keep working in tough conditions. They have three main parts. These are a head (plunger), body (barrel), and spring inside. The spring pushes constantly to keep the connection strong. Even when things shake or move.
These connectors are bigger than regular ones (1.0 mm to 6.0 mm across) and handle more power. They won’t disconnect when bumped or shaken, making them ideal for demanding applications.
How do they Work?
The spring is their secret weapon. When pressed, it stores energy and keeps pushing back, maintaining solid contact no matter what happens around it. This design ensures reliable performance in electronic devices where failure isn’t an option.
Technical Specifications That Deliver Results
Promax large pogo pins maintain excellent electrical flow with just 50 milliohms maximum resistance. This ensures stable signals and minimal heat buildup. Our gold-over-nickel coating prevents corrosion while maximizing performance.

Large Pogo Pins FAQs
Large pogo pins have bigger diameters (1.0 mm to 6.0 mm) than standard pins. This larger size lets them handle more power (up to 20A in special designs) and withstand greater physical stress. They’re built specifically for tough environments where regular pins would fail quickly.
Start by checking how much power you need – regular large pins handle 1-2A, while our special high-power versions support up to 20A. Then consider how often the connection will be made/broken, environmental conditions (temperature, humidity), and space limitations. Our engineering team can help you choose the perfect pin for your specific needs.
Magnetic pogo connectors combine spring-loaded contacts with magnetic attraction. This creates self-aligning connections that prevent damage from improper insertion. The magnetic pull ensures consistent contact while allowing quick disconnection when needed. They’re perfect for applications requiring frequent plugging/unplugging or where connections must be made without visual guidance.
