Hirose DF1 2-Pin IDC Socket — Last Buy Notice
The Hirose DF1-2S-2.5R24(05) is a 2-position IDC socket from the DF1 series, terminated to 24 AWG discrete wire via insulation displacement. The 2.50mm pitch and single-row layout suit low-density signal harnesses where a quick, solderless wire termination is needed. The brown housing and tin-plated female socket contacts are standard for cost-sensitive, low-mating-cycle applications. This part is in Last Buy status — the official end-of-production window is open, and quantities are sourced against RFQ.
What the Last Buy Status Means for Your BOM
The DF1-2S-2.5R24(05) carries a Last Buy lifecycle status — the manufacturer has announced end-of-production, and remaining stock is the final available inventory. Once this allocation is exhausted, the part will no longer be manufactured.
IDC Termination and Wire Fit
No crimp tool or separate terminal is needed; the wire is prepared by stripping to length and inserted into the housing. The feed-through feature allows daisy-chaining in a harness.
Mating and Pitch Compatibility
This socket mates with the matching DF1 series header at 2.50mm pitch. The 2-position count and single-row layout match a 2-circuit header. The tin contact finish is rated for standard-duty mating cycles — not for frequent connect/disconnect in field-service scenarios.
