'''Pin Tip Plugs''' and '''Pin Tip Jacks''' form a 2 millimeter (0.08 in) connector system sometimes used in multimeters and therefore also called meter pin connectors. In contrast to the [[banana connector]], the pin does not bear any springs and is straight, requiring springs in the jack for good contact. Some 5000-series plugins use 0.040 inch (~1 mm) pin connectors.

Jumper cable with 0.08" Pin Tip Plugs

Pin Tip Plugs and Pin Tip Jacks are small dc connectors similar to banana connectors, however the pin does not bear any springs and is straight, requiring springs in the jack for good contact. Angled pin connectors are sometimes called meter pin connectors, since they were common in older (1960s) multimeters.

Tektronix uses two variants, one with 0.080" (~2 mm) pin diameter and one with 0.040" (~1 mm) pin diameter.
