What this connector is
Key ratings and what they mean
The 60 positions across two rows at 0.100 inch pitch puts this squarely in the medium-density board-to-board range — the same pitch as a standard 0.100-inch header, so it is pin-compatible with any 0.100-inch dual-row male header in the same position count. The contact material is brass with gold on the mating side (30.0 µin) and flash gold on the solder tails — the plating asymmetry means the mated interface carries the durability, while the post-side flash is fine for a solder joint that mates once during assembly. The insulation height of 0.335 inch (8.51 mm) and the 0.100 inch row spacing govern the board-stack geometry; confirm the complementary header's post length clears your board thickness. UL94 V-0 rated glass-filled polyester housing gives the mechanical backbone needed for industrial environments.
Where it is used
Dubox board-to-board receptacles are used in industrial control boards, instrumentation racks, and automation modules where a reliable male header mates into a fixed PCB header — often in equipment that stays assembled for its service life rather than being frequently disconnected. The push-pull retention and through-hole solder termination suit a permanent board-level interconnect in a DIN-rail or panel-mounted assembly. The 0.100-inch pitch is the industry-standard grid for 2.54 mm pitch headers, so this family shows up in legacy automation equipment, industrial I/O cards, and legacy test instrumentation.
