Need to power a circuit with a 9 V battery? Try this RS PRO battery contact. It also helps to contain the cell when it's inserted into a battery compartment. You'll commonly find this component used in walkie-talkies and transistor radios. The contact is long-lasting, as it's made of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) resin. This makes it extremely resistant to chemical corrosion. The battery contact's flame-retardant properties reduce the risk of an electrical fire spreading. A battery contact like this one is frequently used in smoke alarms, instrumentation devices and electric clocks. It meets the quality and safety standards for electrostatic discharge (ESD S20.20) in Britain and Europe, so it won't interfere with the working function of nearby electrical components. It also complies with Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) standards, meaning it contains only minimal amounts of any harmful materials.
