That pitch matches standard 0.100\" ribbon cable; if you're pressing an IDC connector onto ribbon, the pitch has to match the ribbon, and this one does. The header is shrouded on one wall — the single wall guides the mating housing but leaves the other side open. That's typical for MTA-100 wire-to-board applications where the receptacle has its own alignment features. ## Gold Mating Finish — 30 µinch for Repeated Mate Cycles The solder tails are tin-plated, 150.0 µinch (3.81 µm) thick — tin wets well in wave solder and holds a reliable joint without gold embrittlement risk. ## Friction Lock and UL94 V-0 Housing The fastening type is a friction lock — a simple ramp on the header that engages a matching latch on the receptacle. It's not a secondary lock, but it prevents the connector from backing off under light vibration or cable tug. ## Active Production — Orderable Now No EOL notice or successor has been issued. The part is ROHS3 compliant and available in bulk packaging.","metaTitle":"3-641215-3 TE Connectivity MTA-100 Header 3 Pos 2.54mm","metaDescription":"3-641215-3 TE Connectivity AMP Connectors MTA-100 header, 3 positions, 0.100\" (2.54mm) pitch, shrouded-1 wall, friction lock, gold mating finish.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"MTA-100","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"ROHS3 Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Pin Headers, Sockets & Housings","Pin Headers"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors","Style":"Board to Cable/Wire","Series":"MTA-100","Package":"Bulk","Features":"-","Shrouding":"Shrouded - 1 Wall","Termination":"Solder","Applications":"General Purpose","Contact Type":"Male Pin","Contact Shape":"Square","Mounting Type":"Through Hole","Connector Type":"Header","Fastening Type":"Friction Lock","Number of Rows":"1","Pitch - Mating":"0.100\\\" (2.54mm)","Product Status":"Active","Voltage Rating":"250VAC","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Contact Material":"Copper Alloy","Insulation Color":"Natural","Insulation Height":"0.305\\\" (7.75mm)","Ingress Protection":"-","Base Product Number":"641215","Insulation Material":"Thermoplastic","Number of Positions":"3","Row Spacing - Mating":"-","Contact Finish - Post":"Tin","Contact Length - Post":"0.140\\\" (3.56mm)","Current Rating (Amps)":"Varies by Wire Gauge","Operating Temperature":"-55°C~105°C","Mated Stacking Heights":"-","Overall Contact Length":"0.535\\\" (13.59mm)","Contact Finish - Mating":"Gold","Contact Length - Mating":"0.295\\\" (7.49mm)","Number of Positions Loaded":"All","Material Flammability Rating":"UL94 V-0","Contact Finish Thickness - Post":"150.0µin (3.81µm)","Contact Finish Thickness - Mating":"30.0µin (0.76µm)"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$1.1300","priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$1.13000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$0.95400","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$0.85660","currency":"USD"},{"qty":500,"price":"$0.70082","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1000,"price":"$0.62295","currency":"USD"},{"qty":5000,"price":"$0.54508","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10000,"price":"$0.51783","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/bdf185d7e8c453bb20c61b8527b72cc3.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/3-641215-3/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Does 3-641215-3 have a friction lock?","answer":"Yes, the fastening type is a friction lock.
