5600200222

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The Molex 560020-0222 is a DuraClik series wire-to-board header featuring a vertical, shrouded design with two positions and a single row. It utilizes a 2 mm (0.079 in) pitch and surface-mount (SMD/SMT) installation style with straight solder termination. The male pin contacts are made of copper alloy with tin plating, rated for 3 A current and 125 V voltage. The natural polyamide (PA) housing provides UL 94 V-0 flammability rating, operating between -40°C and +105°C, with an insulation resistance of 1 GOhms.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Shrouded vertical header design ensures correct mating alignment and prevents reverse insertion errors during assembly.
• Tin-plated copper alloy contacts provide reliable signal transmission with corrosion resistance for long-term durability.
• Polyamide housing material offers high thermal stability and meets UL 94 V-0 flammability standards for safety compliance.

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Wire-to-board signal interconnections
• Consumer electronics PCB assembly
• Industrial control system interfaces

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm contact plating and packaging type, as variations exist within the 560020 series. Ensure compatibility with automated SMT placement equipment by checking reel specifications. Confirm that the 2mm pitch matches the target PCB footprint design requirements before procurement.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, vertically oriented connector is required for space-constrained board layouts. The 2-position configuration is suitable for simple signal or power lines where minimal footprint is critical. Consider the DuraClik locking mechanism if secure mating retention is necessary without additional fasteners.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Molex DuraClik family, designed for robust wire-to-board applications. The 560020 series is characterized by its shrouded headers and compatible receptacles, widely used in commercial and industrial sectors requiring reliable, compact interconnect solutions with standardized spacing.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 2mm pitch, 2-position count, vertical orientation, and SMT termination. Verify that alternative parts maintain the same shrouded design and UL 94 V-0 rating to ensure mechanical and electrical equivalence in existing assemblies.
