Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the exact part number against official Molex documentation to confirm current status and specifications. Ensure compatibility with mating receptacles within the Pico-Lock series. Check for RoHS compliance requirements relevant to your manufacturing region. Confirm surface-mount footprint dimensions match your PCB layout constraints before ordering.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, right-angle connection is required for space-constrained applications. The 1.50mm pitch allows for higher density compared to standard 2.54mm headers. Consider the SMD mounting method for automated assembly processes. Evaluate the mechanical stability needs of the application to ensure the single-row design meets structural requirements.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component is part of the broader Molex Pico-Lock connector family, designed for high-reliability interconnections in demanding environments. The Pico-Lock series is known for its secure locking mechanism and robust performance. Molex manufactures this product line to serve various industries requiring dependable signal and power transmission in compact form factors.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Consult official Molex resources for verified substitute part numbers. Generic equivalents may not match the precise locking mechanism or dimensional tolerances of the Pico-Lock system. Verify that any replacement maintains the same 1.50mm pitch and right-angle orientation.
