14-Position, 2.00 mm Pitch Header for Signal-Duty Cable-to-Board
The 1-440055-4: Tin plating is cost-effective for applications with infrequent mate/unmate cycles — expect 50 to 100 cycles before contact resistance drift becomes a concern.
Right-Angle Mounting and Dual Termination Options
Termination is listed as press-fit or solder — press-fit suits backplane assembly where wave solder is undesirable, while solder supports standard through-hole reflow or wave lines. The 0.134-inch (3.40 mm) post length and 0.138-inch (3.50 mm) mating pin length are typical for a 1.6 mm PCB with a standard receptacle stack height.
It is RoHS3 compliant.
How It Compares to Similar Single-Row Headers
Compared to the TE 1-292164-1 (CT series, 11 positions, 2.00 mm pitch, detent lock), the 1-440055-4 offers three more circuits and a press-fit termination option, but lacks the detent locking feature. The CT series carries a current rating that varies by wire gauge, while the HPI series specifies a flat 3 A per contact — simpler to budget. Both use tin-on-tin contacts and right-angle through-hole mounting, so the board footprint and mating receptacle are similar, but the locking mechanism and position count differ. The 1-440055-4's press-fit option gives it an edge in solderless assembly scenarios where the.025 series requires soldering.
