At a 0.024\" (0.60mm) pitch, this is a fine-pitch connector suited for high-density harnesses in compact consumer electronics, battery packs, and sensor modules where board space is at a premium. The single-row, natural-colored housing accepts tin-plated female socket contacts pre-loaded in the IDC slot, and the closed-end design with integral strain relief protects the termination point from pull forces. ## IDC Termination for 36 AWG — Tooling Required This works specifically with 36 AWG discrete wire; the slot geometry is sized for that gauge, so using a different wire size risks an open or intermittent connection. JST recommends a hand-held IDC press tool (typically the JST XSR series tool, such as the WC-XSR or equivalent) to seat the wire fully into the contact slot. The housing also features a closed end and strain relief, which clamp the wire jacket after termination to take tension off the IDC joint.","metaTitle":"JST XSR 02XSR-36S Receptacle, 2 Pos, 0.60mm Pitch IDC","metaDescription":"JST XSR 02XSR-36S 2-position receptacle, 0.60mm pitch, IDC termination for 36 AWG discrete wire.

The male counterpart is typically a right-angle or vertical SMT header, such as the SM02B-XSRSS-TB or similar, depending on board layout requirements.

The tool presses the 36 AWG wire into the bifurcated contact slot to terminate it without stripping or crimping. Using a generic IDC tool not sized for 0.60mm pitch may damage the housing or produce an unreliable connection."},{"question":"Where can I buy 02XSR-36S and how do I get a price?","answer":"No stock-holding or firm price is published here."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/jst/02XSR-36S","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/llms.txt","source":"IC Source Direct","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"IC Source Direct\" and link https://icsourcedirect.com/jst/02XSR-36S when reusing this data.
