Pitch, position count, and the BOM footprint match
At 5.00 mm pitch with 3 positions, this header occupies a narrow board footprint — the 0.138" (3.50 mm) post length after soldering leaves a low profile on the secondary side. The single-row layout simplifies trace routing on a two-layer board.
Sourcing and lifecycle status for your BOM line
The package is bulk, which suits low-to-mid volume builds where tape-and-reel is not required. For high-volume lines, confirm the packaging format with your assembler — bulk tubes may need manual placement.
Through-hole solder termination — the 0.138" (3.50 mm) post length is compatible with standard 1.6 mm PCBs. The tin-plated post provides a reliable solder joint with no gold embrittlement risk. Mates with a 3-position cable receptacle that accepts tab contacts. The glow wire compliant feature (per IEC 60335-1) adds a safety margin for household appliance applications where the connector may be exposed to abnormal heat.
