3.00 mm pitch, single-row, right-angle header with locking ramp
The 2-1445088-3: This is a 3-position, single-row header from the Micro MATE-N-LOK series, pitched at 3.00 mm and mounted through-hole, right-angle. The shrouded 4-wall design with a locking ramp secures the mating cable connector against vibration — a common requirement for power and signal interconnects in industrial and consumer equipment. The contact finish on the mating side is gold at 15 µin, which supports repeated mating cycles without contact resistance degradation. The post side is tin over 100 µin thickness, compatible with standard wave-solder processes.
Board lock and right-angle orientation for space-constrained layouts
An integrated board lock holds the header in place during wave solder and resists shear forces from cable strain — reduces the chance of lifted pads or misalignment in production. The right-angle orientation routes the mated cable parallel to the PCB, saving vertical clearance in enclosures with tight lid-to-board spacing. The insulation height is 3.85 mm (0.152 in), and the contact post length is 2.90 mm (0.114 in) — check your PCB thickness and solder fillet clearance against these dimensions.
