Hybrid and smd subassembly contractors may recommend their own prefered parts for this application - saving you the cost of order quantities and tooling.
They are supplied in reels (100K ?) and should be applied and reflowed prior to removal of the break-off strip carrier, to preserve alignment and coplanarity.
They can be installed manually, one off, with various jigs or clamps of your own, enabling lower volumes - but the tecnology is aimed at automation.
Again, check out the capabilities of your intended fab resource and design-to-meet for least hassle and trouble-free introduction of larger scales of production methods. They may even supply you with sufficient samples of their prefered material, to allow early physical development, without increasing lab part inventory.
a) their catalog request web form doesn't work b) the snipped-for-privacy@interplex.com address doesn't work c) the snipped-for-privacy@interplex.com address from the domain's whois doesn't work
So, they might have a great product and all, but they don't apparently want to actually sell them to anyone.
