24-Position Right-Angle Header for Wire-to-Board Power Distribution
The 10127720-242LF: Contact finish is gold flash over copper alloy — the flash layer is sufficient for intermittent mating in a controlled environment; for applications requiring hundreds of mating cycles, a thicker gold plating (15 or 30 µinch) on the receptacle side is recommended.
Board Lock and Through-Hole Termination for Reliable Solder Anchoring
This is particularly important for a right-angle header, where the cable exit direction exerts shear force on the solder joints — the board lock absorbs that strain before it reaches the pin-to-solder interface.
