1-794636-2

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The 1-794636-2 is a Micro MATE-N-LOK series header assembly manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors. It features a surface mount (SMD) vertical design with 12 positions arranged in a dual row configuration. The connector utilizes a 0.118-inch (3.00mm) pitch for mating contacts and provides shrouding on four walls to ensure proper alignment during insertion. The housing is constructed from black polyamide (PA), nylon, rated UL94 V-0 for flammability. Contacts are made of brass with tin plating, offering a thickness of 100.0µin (2.54µm).
