Board-to-wire header with locking ramp for vibration resistance
The 0.250" (6.35 mm) pitch and row spacing set the PCB footprint and the per-contact current ceiling — tin-plated contacts are rated for moderate cycle life, typically under 50 matings, making this a cost-optimized choice for power distribution or signal harnesses in industrial and automotive environments.
Pitch, positions, and plating — what drives the fit
With 9 positions loaded across 3 rows at 0.250" (6.35 mm) pitch, this header occupies a compact board area while keeping adequate clearance for routing.
