Tin-Plated Contacts and UL94 V-0 Housing
The 281742-8: Tin is cost-effective but frets under high vibration or frequent disconnect; for field-service gear with quarterly cycling, tin holds up well.

Yes, it is a right-angle through-hole header — the pins exit parallel to the PCB, suitable for board-edge cable routing.
The mating pitch is 0.100" (2.54mm), standard for the HE13/HE14 series. Row spacing is also 0.100" (2.54mm).
Yes, it is part of the HE13/HE14 series and mates with HE13/HE14 receptacles. Verify the receptacle pitch and circuit count match before ordering.
