JST Plug and Chassis-Socket

JST Plug and Chassis-Socket


Turn your JST connectors into a plug and Chassis-socket. Included are parts for 2- to 6-pins connectors.

Chassis-plate:
Press the female part into the back (the not flat side) of the chassis-plate. It is a very tight fit (of course that also depends on your printer) so a little filing can be necessary

Plug:
Fit the male part first before proceeding. It is also a tight fit. When it fits, put the plug part over the wires. Solder your wires to the male part of the JST-connector. Put the part over the connector.
It is designed to be a tight press-fit, so glue shouldn't be necessary.

Collar:
The collar-part is recommended. It makes the connection a lot stronger and durable. In the files here the height of the collar is 3 mm. You can make it higher if you want, makes the whole stronger.

Backplate:
The backplate is optional. Put it at the other side of the chassis if you need to reinforce the connection.
