CWN-351-10-0021

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The CWN-351-10-0021 is a vertical pin header connector manufactured by CW Industries, featuring ten positions with a 2.54mm pitch. It utilizes through-hole termination and includes an ejector mechanism for secure mating. The contacts are gold-plated phosphor bronze pins housed in blue thermoplastic insulation rated UL94 V-0. Designed for board-to-cable or wire applications, it supports a maximum current of 1A and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Vertical orientation with integrated ejector header mechanism
• Gold-plated male pin contacts for reliable signal transmission
• Blue thermoplastic insulator with UL94 V-0 flammability rating

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-cable interconnections
• Wire-to-board connections
• General electronic equipment interfaces

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for the CWN-351 series, as product attributes may vary between manufacturing batches. Confirm that the ejector mechanism requirement aligns with the assembly process, as this feature distinguishes it from standard fixed headers. Ensure compatibility with mating receptacles regarding contact length and pitch tolerance.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a vertical mounting style with an ejector mechanism is required for easy removal. The 10-position count and 2.54mm pitch suit low-density interconnects. Consider the 1A current rating and 125°C thermal limit against the application's electrical and environmental loads before finalizing the design.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the CWN series of commercial headers from CW Industries. It is distinct from the CWN-370 and CWN-360 series due to its specific ejector mechanism and vertical configuration. The model number indicates a 10-position variant within this specific product line.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Amphenol CS (FCI) part number 71918-010LF is listed as a similar alternative. Verify mechanical dimensions, contact plating specifications, and ejector functionality compatibility before substitution.
