FEATURES:
Aries' Universal Test Socket accepts devices on .300 to .600 [7.62 to 15.24] centers.
All pin count sockets go into PCB with either .300 or .600 [7.62 to 15.24] centers.
Swing quick-release handle down to open contacts and insert device. Release and handle automatically returns as contacts close onto device leads.
Socket handle can be mounted on either the right or left side.
Sockets can be soldered into PCBs or plugged into any socket.
