8-Position Shrouded Header for Automotive Harness Integration
The 0307004080: The 2.54mm pitch and 2.54mm row spacing set the PCB footprint, while the 0.311" (7.90mm) mating pin length provides adequate engagement depth for the mating receptacle. Rated for automotive use, the header's syndiotactic polystyrene (SPS) glass-filled insulation material offers dimensional stability across temperature cycles typical of under-hood and cabin environments.
This header mates with a corresponding H-DAC 64 receptacle housing (not included) that accepts crimp terminals. Confirm this height fits within your enclosure's z-height budget.
Packaged in trays, suitable for pick-and-place or manual assembly. The base product number is 030700, which covers the series variants.
Tin-Plated Contacts: Cost vs. Cycle Life
Tin plating is cost-effective for high-volume automotive applications but limits mating cycles compared to gold — typically rated for 25-50 cycles. In a production harness that is mated once and rarely disconnected, this is not a limitation. The square pin shape ensures reliable contact with the receptacle's female terminal.
