With a 0.100" (2.54mm) square grid on both pitch and row spacing, this header uses the industry-standard footprint that matches a wide range of IDC sockets, shunts, and mating receptacles.
Rated 5 A per circuit at 110 V — the 5 A figure is per-contact at the stated voltage, typical for signal and light power duty on a 0.100" pitch header. The 100.0 µ" (2.54 µm) tin plating on the mating surface gives a robust, cost-effective finish for moderate mating-cycle applications; tin works well where the mated pair sees limited reconnection cycles in a clean environment. The 0.230" (5.84 mm) mating pin length provides solid wipe depth into a standard box or friction-lock receptacle.
Where it fits — mounting and mating
Right-angle through-hole mounting: the 0.150" (3.81 mm) solder post length suits standard PCB thicknesses around 0.062" to 0.093". The unshrouded design gives direct access to the pins for probing or for mating with a shrouded receptacle that provides its own polarization.
