A24202-040

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The Omnetics A24202-040 is a Micro Strip series rectangular connector plug designed for surface mount installation. It features 44 positions with a 0.050" (1.27mm) mating pitch and 0.100" (2.54mm) row spacing in a two-row configuration. The housing is constructed from black polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), providing an insulation height of 0.170" (4.32mm). Contacts are made of copper beryllium, featuring gold plating with a thickness of 50.0µin (1.27µm) for mating surfaces and tin-lead for the column. Rated at 3A per contact, it operates within a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.
