M20-9700846

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The M20-9700846 is a male pin header connector from the Harwin M20 series, designed for through-hole mounting. It features an 8-position single-row configuration with a 2.54mm (0.100 inch) pitch. The connector utilizes square-shaped brass contacts with tin plating on both the mating and tail sections. Constructed with black polyamide (PA6T) insulation rated UL94 V-0, it supports a continuous current of 3A per contact across an operating temperature range of -40°C to +105°C. The assembly includes a push-pull locking mechanism and offers a mating contact length of 6.10mm.
