The full 4-wall shroud protects the tab contacts and guides the mating plug, and the integrated board lock holds the header in place during wave solder — useful when the cable strain pulls on the mated assembly. Rated 600V and covering -55°C to 105°C, this header fits general-purpose and industrial equipment where the voltage and temperature margins matter more than fine-pitch density. The tin plating on both the mating surface and the post keeps cost down for moderate mating-cycle duty. ## Board lock and shrouding for vibration resistance The board lock feature anchors the header to the PCB through the through-hole solder joint, resisting the shear force from a mated cable plug under vibration. The 4-wall shroud prevents contact damage during handling and guides the mating half into alignment, which reduces the chance of bent pins in blind-mate or high-volume assembly. The detent lock on the shroud provides an audible tactile click when the mating plug is fully seated — a simple but effective retention that holds the pair together without requiring a secondary latch or screw.","metaTitle":"316516-5 TE Connectivity Dynamic D-3500 Header, 12 Pos","metaDescription":"316516-5 TE Connectivity AMP Connectors Dynamic D-3500 header, 12 positions, 5.08mm pitch, 2 rows, shrouded, board lock, RoHS.
