Product details

Pitch, position count, and the friction lock

The 281739-6: The friction lock on the shroud holds the mating housing in place; you should hear it click when the pair is fully seated, which keeps the connection from backing out under vibration.

Flammability and material compliance

The part is ROHS3 compliant.

Mating and termination details

The header mates with the corresponding HE13/HE14 receptacle housing (sold separately). Termination is through-hole solder — the 0.114" (2.90mm) post length fits standard PCB hole sizes for wave or hand soldering.
