Printed Circuit Board (PCB) Support
The HS Dock™ connectors require a significant amount of force per pin to press into the PCB. To prevent
excessive PCB flexure and/or damage to the PCB, a support plate is strongly recommended directly beneath the
connector hole pattern.
Due to the custom nature of every application, Molex does not offer any PCB support plate. The customer must
furnish their own support plate.
When creating the PCB support plate, remember to allow clearance for the connector pins as they pass through
the PCB thickness.
Press Equipment Recommendations
Many types of presses can be used to install HS Dock™ connectors, but to assure consistent connector
installation Molex recommends the following press criteria:
1. The capability to detect force variations as low as 4.5kg (10 lbs.) during the press-in cycle; excessive force
measurements should stop the press-in cycle.
2. The rate of pressing can be regulated as low as 0.13mm (0.005 in) per second.
3. Press stroke control to within 0.25mm (0.010 in).
4. Total press stroke must be at least 19mm (0.75 in).
5. For statistical purposes, automatic collection of force and distance data.
Tool Operation
1. Carefully insert, by hand, the connector assembly into the PCB hole pattern.
2. Place the press-in tool on top of the connector assembly with the back guide surface of the tool against the
back of the connector assembly. See Figure 2.

ASSEMBLY
3. Using the application tool and an appropriate press, seat the connector assembly until there is less than
0.10mm (.004 in) clearance between the bottom of the plastic housing and the surface of the PCB. See
Figure 3.
CAUTION: To prevent injury, never operate any press without the guards in place. Refer to the press
manufacturer’s instruction manual.
CAUTION: Molex application tooling specifications are valid only when used with Molex connectors and tooling.
