is the CF slot deep and unlikely to bend pins.

When I insert a CF card into mine, it goes in right at 3/4 of an inch, which is just over half the length of the CF card. Inserts and removed nicely, and I have never had any problems with bent pins.

Hi Glen~ This Kingston USB 3,0 memory card reader is one of the best, if not the best card reader on the market! I have had issues with other models where the pins eventually became baent and were useless for CF cards. This card reader was well constructed. The CF cards are so securely and tightly held in the slot, thereby avoiding any movement which can potentially bend some of the pins. I absolutely endorse this product! The Kingston USB 3.0 is great with SD cards! Do check the reviews on Amazon!

used it for 6 months and the pins are still straight. standard depth. not really deep.

The gap is just a little more than an inch wide. I have had my pen for almost a year now with no issues. The pins have a round ball attached to the top. It would be very difficult to be impaled by it.

This is a super weird internal pin out, it will probably not work. Safety not guaranteed.

This is perfect for link and pin installation. There is a groove that is specific for this purpose. Since the material is not rigid like steel, there is no chance of damage to parts, but it is tough enough to standup to normal driving force.

My unit doesn't bend easily. It is very rigid and has a good handle to grip. I use it a lot, and I've never had an issue.

NO!! When we got it, we were very excited. To bad the connecting pins do not line up! We just ended up tossing it out. Don't waste your money.

Yes the locking pin does fall into every hole if you do not hold the locking lever down. If you hold it down you can extend it to it's full length in one shot.Hope that helps you.

I don't believe there is anything that would directly prevent you from getting items back out through the slot -- however there are some internal seams on the outer edges where things may get stuck.

Yes you can. It will be one pin short but as long as you line up the clip properly you will be fine

I did a serch on the net and yes you can, but the unit is cheap enough to just buy a new one if you break them. Take care of it and do not force the pins to deep into anything hard except drywall or other soft materials. It works fine without having to go to deep..

In most cases, no. Each company uses different Designs. It's abnoxous when switching between brands. It's not even just the spacing between the pins, it's the size of the pins and how they are split into segments as well.

No, the probe cannot be bent. It is solid to protect the sensors inside that check the temperature.

The unit works ok, but the framing is flemzey. I have a really solid unit in my other PC, but do not know the brand. My suggestion is not to use a CF card, but use a SD. Don't have to worry about the pins getting bent.

That would not concern me. Mine does too. A lot of slotted tools that take bits do that, but if you're holding it upside down and the bit is falling out without touching it, your bit-extender is probably the problem and it's not retaining the bit. Otherwise, I wouldn't be critical if there is some movement.

Actually, there must be something extraordinary taking place. I am using the clamp as you mentioned and it is a relatively tight fit without a lot of wobble. There is supposed to be a brass/bronze bushing in the hole in the clamp, if it is no there then it would be very wobbly.Hope this helps.

I don't see how. Maybe clipping another pin with a free weight between stack and pin head? Wouldn't try it.
