450-40-236-00-006000

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The Mill-Max 450-40-236-00-006000 is a vertical pin header connector featuring 36 positions with a 0.100-inch (2.54mm) centerline spacing. Designed for through-hole termination, it utilizes a two-row configuration of circular male pins. The contacts are constructed from copper alloy and finished with tin plating measuring 200.0 microinches (5.08 micrometers). The assembly incorporates a black PCT insulator and measures 0.394 inches in overall contact length.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Vertical board-to-board mounting style with push-pull retention mechanism
• Through-hole termination for secure PCB integration
• Tin-plated copper alloy contacts for reliable conductivity

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• High-reliability precision interconnect systems
• Industrial control panel connections
• Test and measurement equipment interfaces

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number against official Mill-Max documentation to confirm current production status and RoHS compliance. Ensure that the required pin count and spacing align with the target PCB footprint. Confirm that the through-hole termination method matches the manufacturing process capabilities. Check for any specific environmental certifications required for the intended deployment environment.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard 2.54mm pitch vertical header is required for rigid board-to-board applications. The 36-position count suits designs needing moderate density without excessive height. Consider the push-pull retention feature if mating force management is critical. Verify that the tin plating thickness meets the necessary cycle life requirements for the application.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to the Mill-Max 450 series, which specializes in high-reliability precision-machined interconnects. The series is recognized for consistent performance in demanding environments. The 450-40 variant specifically denotes a standard pin header configuration. Mill-Max has manufactured these components since 1971, establishing a baseline for industrial-grade connectivity solutions.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

The Preci-Dip 450-80-248-00-006101 is listed as an alternative option. Verify mechanical compatibility and electrical specifications before substitution. Ensure that the replacement maintains the same pin count and spacing requirements.
