1062710781

Overview

The Molex 106271-0781 is a 7-position, single-row, male pin header connector from the KK 254 Series. It features a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch and is designed for PCB mounting via through-hole termination. The component utilizes a thermoplastic housing with UL94V-0 flammability rating and tin-plated phosphor bronze contacts. Rated for 3A current and 250V AC voltage, it supports wire-to-board interconnections in compact electronic assemblies.

Feature Summary

• Single-row male pin configuration for standard board stacking
• Through-hole termination method for secure PCB attachment
• Tin-plated phosphor bronze contacts ensuring reliable conductivity

Applications

• Consumer electronics internal wiring
• Industrial control panel interconnects
• Computer peripheral assembly connections

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact plating thickness and housing color against the latest manufacturer datasheet before procurement. Confirm that the selected variant matches the required straight or right-angle orientation if applicable to your design constraints. Ensure compatibility with mating female headers from the same series family.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 7-position, 2.54mm pitch male header is required for low-to-medium current applications. Consider the operating temperature range and insulation resistance requirements of your specific environment. Verify that the PCB footprint matches the mechanical dimensions provided in the official drawing.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Molex KK 254 Series, a widely used line of connectors characterized by their 2.54mm pitch. The series offers various configurations including vertical, right-angle, and shrouded options. The 106271-0781 specifically denotes a 7-position unshrouded male header variant within this extensive product family.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other 7-position, 2.54mm pitch male headers from manufacturers such as JST, Hirose, or Samtec, provided mechanical and electrical specifications match exactly. Always verify pin spacing, contact material, and housing dimensions before substituting.
