SMT springs - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

Some time back, I came across a vendor of surface mount spirings that allowed you to connect the ground of your PCB to the nearby housing.
These parts were machine inserted and stood up about 4 mm. I believe they were made by a Japanese company.

If anyone has a clue who makes these, I'd appreciate the insight,
