FTSH-109-04-F-MT-TR

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The FTSH-109-04-F-MT-TR is a high-reliability header strip manufactured by Samtec Inc. It features a 1.27mm (0.050 inch) pitch with 18 positions arranged in two rows. The connector utilizes surface mount right-angle termination and includes mixed technology tails for through-hole mounting. Contact materials are phosphor bronze with flash gold plating on the mating interface and tin on the tail. The insulator is black liquid crystal polymer rated UL94 V-0, supporting an operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.
