Frequently Asked Questions
What is LIM construction?
LIM (Liquid Injection Molding) creates a one-piece silicone seal molded directly onto the connector, eliminating gasket assembly steps and providing superior long-term sealing reliability.
Why PA46 housing?
PA46 provides higher heat deflection temperature and better dimensional stability under thermal stress than standard LCP.
Why Choose VITALCONN?
VITALCONN is a trusted USB Type-C LIM connector manufacturer with 200+ employees and ISO-9000 certified facilities. Serving JABIL, H3C, KAON, and Free across industrial, marine, and automotive markets worldwide.
Refer to the attached datasheet for LIM sealing dimensions, PCB layout, and PCB-to-seal clearance guidelines (0.10-0.15mm recommended).
