1-828588-6

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The 1-828588-6 is a vertical header connector manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors. It features 16 positions with a 0.100-inch (2.54mm) pin spacing and is designed for through-hole termination. The connector utilizes a locking mechanism with pop hooks for secure attachment. Contact surfaces are finished with gold or gold-palladium plating on the mating interface, while the tail contacts are tin-plated. The housing is constructed from polyester reinforced with glass fiber, rated UL94 V-0 for flammability, and is available in gray insulation color.
