8-146256-0

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The 8-146256-0 is a vertical through-hole header from the AMPMODU MOD II series, featuring a 0.100 inch (2.54mm) pitch and 60 positions across two rows. It utilizes gold-plated bronze contacts for signal transmission and a black thermoplastic housing rated UL 94 V-0. Designed for board-to-board or cable interconnects, it offers a breakaway design for flexible panel mounting.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Vertical PCB mount orientation with shrouded header design
• Gold-plated contact finish for reliable signal integrity
• Breakaway feature allows for custom row segmentation

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnects in industrial equipment
• Signal routing in consumer electronics assemblies
• Cable-to-PCB connections in control systems

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order matches the 60-position, two-row configuration. Confirm the vertical orientation requirement aligns with the PCB layout. Ensure the application environment supports the standard operating temperature range defined by the thermoplastic housing material specifications.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density 2.54mm pitch header is required for vertical mounting. The breakaway capability distinguishes it from fixed-length headers, offering assembly flexibility. Verify that the 60-position count meets the circuit requirements without necessitating multiple connectors.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the AMPMODU MOD II family, a widely used line of wire-to-board and board-to-board connectors. The series is known for its robust mechanical design and compatibility with standard manufacturing processes, serving as a foundational solution for general-purpose electronic interconnections.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same pitch and position count should be evaluated based on housing flammability ratings and contact plating thickness. Ensure any alternative maintains the vertical orientation and breakaway functionality if field modification is anticipated.
