Product details

12 Circuits at 3.96mm Pitch — BOM Fit Check

The 0026481121: Unshrouded, push-pull fastening: mates with standard KK396 crimp housings or IDC receptacles.

Tin is the workhorse finish for moderate-duty connections — expect reliable contact resistance over a few hundred mate cycles in clean, indoor environments. The 60.0µin thickness is well above the flash threshold, so it holds up to repeated insertion without galling. The through-hole post is 0.172" (4.37mm) long — enough for a standard 1.6mm PCB with the solder fillet climbing the barrel.

Where This Header Fits — Applications and Environment

The tin finish and 3.96mm pitch suit power and signal distribution in control panels, test equipment, and appliance PCBs.
