The 1511173012: That current ceiling is typical for a signal-level interconnect – don't plan to push power through it. The temperature span covers most industrial cabinet and automotive interior environments. No secondary lock or screw-down required – the detent holds the pair mated under moderate vibration.
Tin Plating at 78.7 µinch – Practical for Moderate Duty
The mating contacts are finished with 78.7 µinch of tin over the copper alloy base. That's thicker than the 30–50 µinch flash tin you see on budget headers – it gives better wear-through resistance for connectors that see maybe a few hundred mate/unmate cycles over the product life. For a field-serviceable board-to-cable connection that gets cycled quarterly, this plating is adequate; for a high-cycle test fixture, you'd want gold. The post (solder tail) carries the same 78.7 µinch tin finish – consistent with the through-hole solder joint requirements for a reliable fillet.
Glow-Wire Compliant – Safety for Appliance Use
The header carries a glow-wire compliance rating, which means the LCP housing material is formulated to resist ignition under the IEC 60695-2-11 glow-wire test. This is a hard requirement for household appliances and some industrial control equipment – if your design needs to pass a glow-wire test at the system level, this connector helps get you there.
Active Production – No End-of-Life Surprises
That means you can design it into a new BOM without worrying about a forced redesign mid-production. Sourced through independent distribution; availability confirmed at RFQ. No exemption declarations needed.
