The 0.250\" (6.35mm) pitch provides ample spacing for routing larger-gauge wire and maintaining creepage distances at higher voltages, a step up from the 0.100\" or 0.156\" pitch used in signal-only connectors. The locking ramp fastening type ensures the mated connector pair stays together under vibration or cable strain — a practical feature for industrial equipment, power supplies, and appliance wiring where an accidental disconnect means downtime. ## Through-Hole Termination and Material Choices Termination is through-hole solder, with a post length of 0.155\" (3.94mm) — a standard length for single-sided or double-sided PCBs with plated through-holes. Contacts are phosphor bronze with tin plating on both the mating surface and the solder post. Tin is a cost-effective choice for moderate mating-cycle applications. The housing is molded from polyamide (nylon) with a UL94 V-0 flammability rating, meeting the flame-retardant requirement for equipment installed inside enclosures. ## Operating Range and Compliance Rated for an operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C, this header suits applications in industrial cabinets, outdoor telecom gear, and automotive interior environments where the ambient temperature stays within that window. The product status is Active, with no end-of-life notice. Sourced and quoted to order against the BOM quantity — confirm the mating half and position count before committing.","metaTitle":"640901-1 TE Universal MATE-N-LOK Header 5 Pos 0.250","metaDescription":"640901-1 TE Connectivity AMP Connectors Universal MATE-N-LOK header, 5 circuits, 0.250\" pitch, through-hole, locking ramp, UL94 V-0.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"Universal MATE-N-LOK","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"Not applicable","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Pin Headers, Sockets & Housings","Female Socket Headers"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors","Style":"Board to Cable/Wire","Series":"Universal MATE-N-LOK","Package":"Bulk","Features":"-","Termination":"Solder","Applications":"-","Contact Type":"Female Socket","Contact Shape":"Circular","Mounting Type":"Through Hole","Connector Type":"Header","Fastening Type":"Locking Ramp","Number of Rows":"1","Pitch - Mating":"0.250\\\" (6.35mm)","Product Status":"Active","Voltage Rating":"-","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Contact Material":"Phosphor Bronze","Insulation Color":"Natural","Insulation Height":"0.580\\\" (14.73mm)","Ingress Protection":"-","Base Product Number":"640901","Insulation Material":"Polyamide (PA), Nylon","Number of Positions":"5","Row Spacing - Mating":"-","Contact Finish - Post":"Tin","Contact Length - Post":"0.155\\\" (3.94mm)","Current Rating (Amps)":"-","Operating Temperature":"-40°C ~ 105°C","Mated Stacking Heights":"-","Contact Finish - Mating":"Tin","Number of Positions Loaded":"All","Material Flammability Rating":"UL94 V-0","Contact Finish Thickness - Post":"-","Contact Finish Thickness - Mating":"-"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$1.9500","priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$1.95000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$1.78100","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$1.58770","currency":"USD"},{"qty":500,"price":"$1.42104","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1000,"price":"$1.27192","currency":"USD"},{"qty":5000,"price":"$1.14034","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":null,"sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/640901-1/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the mating connector for 640901-1?","answer":"The 640901-1 header mates with a Universal MATE-N-LOK receptacle housing that accepts the corresponding crimp socket contacts.
