Product details

2-position shrouded header at 7.62mm pitch

The 796980-2: Rated 15 A per position at 300 V under UL conditions, with a tin-plated copper alloy contact surface.

Through-hole solder termination, vertical orientation

The vertical header orientation means the mating axis is perpendicular to the PCB — plan for the mated stack height and clearance above the board. Insulation height is 0.472" (12.00mm).

Frequently asked questions

How can I order the 796980-2 or check availability?

The 796980-2 is an active part, sourced to order through our independent distribution network. No stock-holding or lead-time promise is made on the product page.

What is the mating half for the 796980-2 header?

This shrouded header mates with a Buchanan series plug or receptacle that has a 0.300" (7.62mm) pitch and accepts male pins. The shroud guides the mating connector into alignment. Confirm the specific mating part number from the Buchanan series datasheet to ensure fit.

Is the 796980-2 RoHS compliant?

Yes, the 796980-2 is ROHS3 compliant per the manufacturer's listing.

What is the height of the 796980-2 terminal block header?

The insulation height is 0.472" (12.00mm) above the PCB. The contact tail length is 0.138" (3.50mm), so total height above the board when soldered is approximately 0.610" (15.50mm) plus the mated connector height.
