New Battery Insulating Pull Tabs
Keystone recently introduced battery insulators designed to protect batteries and circuitry during shipping and storage prior to use.
These new insulating pull tabs are installed in a product along with the batteries to act as an insulator from energizing the device prior to use. Simply pull the tab out from under the battery contact to activate the product. Lettering and arrows on the pull tabs make for simplified removal.
Manufactured from thin, flexible polyester, these pull tabs can be removed from a battery compartment even if the compartment is closed. For button cell through AAA Batteries, request Part number 111. For 12.7mm coin cells and AA or larger cylindrical cells, request Part Number 117. Both styles are supplied on a 3" adhesive backed carrier strip in rolls of 500 (PN 117) and 1,000 (PN 111)
Keystone's Aluminum and Steel battery holders are lightweight yet strong to snap-fit a cylindrical cell firmly in place.
For "AAA" "AA" "C" "D""N" & Lithium Cells, these holders are available to secure up to 6 batteries with Solder Lug or PCB Mounting Configurations. Available with either parallel or series connections.
