24-hour free samples have always been one of the key differentiators for Samtec. We’re always striving to make that process as easy as possible.
For the past few months, we’ve been quietly expanding and improving your ability to place sample requests online.
We’ve now gotten this process to a point where you can start with a search, and have a sample on its way to you in under 60 seconds.

One-Step Samples on Samtec.com
All of the above methods will allow you to access this simple one-step process. Here is a screenshot of what the entry screen looks like.

As you can see in the screenshot above, everything is in one step. You can adjust your quantity, enter your attn information, enter your shipping address, and finally confirm your sample.
We’ll also default these values if you have entered a sample previously, and use a global geolocation service to pull in valid addresses, making this process even easier on you.
