The mating contact length is 0.083" (2.10 mm), and the insulation height of 0.059" (1.50 mm) keeps the profile low — useful when z-height is tight between stacked boards.
The mating contacts carry 30.0 µinch (0.76 µm) gold over nickel, while the solder posts are tin-plated at 12.0 µinch. This covers most industrial and telecom environments, including reflow soldering exposure.
SMT termination with pick-and-place compatibility
Surface-mount termination with a pick-and-place feature — the header is designed for automated assembly. The box packaging (tube or tray, depending on supplier) feeds standard placement equipment, though the unshrouded profile means the pick-up area is the top of the insulator. The push-pull fastening type and unshrouded design mean no locking latch — board retention relies on the solder joints and the mating receptacle's friction. For vibration-prone applications, consider a shrouded header or a secondary board lock.
