5 most concerning problems for engineers
Failure of water and dust protection is a major concern for engineers regarding IP67 waterproof
In harsh outdoor base stations, industrial automation, outdoor security equipment, and automotive electronics, water and dust intrusion are the number one killers of connector failure. Moisture infiltration causes oxidation at the contact point, resulting in a potential short circuit hazard. Dust accumulates on the contact pin, causing an increase in resistance and unstable signal transmission. The cost of cleaning and replacing connectors is high, which affects the normal operation of the equipment.
In terms of solutions, Johoty’s IP67 waterproof pogo pin connector, with excellent sealing technology and anti-oxidation materials, completely solves the intrusion of water vapor and dust. 1 meter deep without infiltration for 30 minutes, completely dust-proof. Multi layer sealing design, precision spring structure and dual protection of sealing ring. High oxidation resistance, gold-plated nickel and even composite electroplating adapt to acidity, alkalinity and oil stains, maintaining low resistance stability for a long time.

Continuous high-frequency vibration leads to poor contact
High frequency vibration is one of root causes of connector failure in heavy machinery, rail transit, and industrial automation equipment. Long term vibration leads to spring fatigue and loose pins, resulting in frequent signal interruptions. Due to unstable contact, the resistance value fluctuates and increases, resulting in a decrease in signal transmission quality. Frequent failures result in high maintenance costs and equipment downtime.
In response to the challenge of sustained high-frequency vibration, Johoty has launched spring loaded pin technology. We effectively resist high-frequency impacts and vibrations through strong compression springs and precise design. Strong spring support maintains constant contact pressure to prevent loosening and poor contact. Adaptive structural design ensures that highly flexible springs remain tightly attached even under vibration. Strong fatigue resistance, after more than 10,000 vibration tests, its contact resistance remains stable.
German rail transit company is facing vibrations caused by high-speed train operation, and traditional connectors frequently experience signal loss. After replacing with Johoty’s pogo pin connector, device operates stably at 300 km/h without signal disconnection, maintenance frequency is reduced by 80%. The customer was very pleased: the performance exceeded expectations, completely bid farewell to vibration failure, and the reliability was greatly improved.

Premature aging of connectors under temperature shock
In outdoor base stations, aerospace, automotive electronics, and industrial equipment, extreme temperature changes are a fatal test of connector performance and lifespan. Materials become brittle and fracture in extremely cold environments, and plastic and metal components are prone to brittleness or cracking. At high temperatures, the contact surface oxidizes or melts, leading to an increase in contact resistance, a decrease in conductivity, and unstable signals. Repeated temperature fluctuations lead to loose solder joints and pins, resulting in frequent interruptions in connections.
The IP67 waterproof pogo pin connector developed by Johoty can be designed to withstand extreme temperatures. It can withstand drastic temperature changes from -40℃ to +125℃ and can operate stably for a long time. We choose high temperature resistant special polymer materials and alloys that are resistant to high temperature oxidation and low temperature embrittlement. The gold-plated protective layer can prevent high-temperature oxidation and contact surface degradation, while maintaining low resistance and high conductivity. The strengthened spring steel and precise heat treatment process can effectively resist cold and hot cycle fatigue.
At the Arctic scientific research station, equipment is exposed to extreme cold environments of -40℃ for a long time, while at the desert monitoring station, it is subjected to high temperatures of +50℃. After replacing with the Johoty pogo pin connector, the stability of operation has been improved to 99.9%, and the device’s lifespan has been extended by 3 times. The engineer told our CFT team: No matter the cold or hot weather, Johoty pogo pin connector remains consistent and completely solve the problem of temperature induced failure.

Challenge of connector failure in high salt spray environment
In marine monitoring, coastal base stations, offshore wind power, and ship electronic equipment, high salt spray and humidity cause severe corrosion to connectors. Salt spray corrodes metal surfaces, oxidizes contact surfaces, increases contact resistance, and hinders signal transmission. Coating peeling or corrosion, performance degradation, unstable contact, and sudden reduction in connection life. Frequent replacement and maintenance increase downtime and maintenance costs.
To address the challenges of high salt spray corrosion, Johoty recommends using IP67 waterproof pogo pin connector Based on corrosion-resistant materials, advanced electroplating technology or composite electroplating can completely solve the connection problems caused by salt spray erosion. Electroplated gold/nickel protective layer with excellent oxidation and corrosion resistance, effectively preventing surface oxidation. Sealed protection technology achieves IP67 waterproof or IP68 waterproof, preventing salt spray and moisture from entering. Our R&D design has passed 48, 72, 96 hour salt spray testing, and even 1,000 hour durability verification, and its performance remains stable as before.
