Product Introduction
Key features include a UL94 V-0 rated thermoplastic housing, tin-plated copper alloy contacts on both the mating and post sides (120.0 µin / 3.05 µm thick), and a push-pull fastening mechanism. Typical applications include low-to-medium current signal distribution on PCBs, wire-to-board harnesses, and as a general-purpose interconnect in industrial controls, telecom equipment, and consumer electronics where a reliable, cost-effective header is required.
The 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch and 0.100" (2.54 mm) row spacing define the PCB footprint — a standard 0.100" grid pattern that matches many prototyping boards and legacy designs. The press-fit termination option is a key differentiator for backplane or high-reliability assemblies where solderless connections are preferred for rework and field replacement. The through-hole mounting provides mechanical strength against board flex and cable strain.
