M80-5221442

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The M80-5221442 is a Datamate J-Tek series header connector manufactured by Harwin Inc. It features a vertical through-hole mounting style with a 2mm (0.079 inch) mating pitch and a 2mm row spacing. The component provides 21+21 positions, totaling 42 contacts, arranged in two rows. It utilizes male pin contacts made from phosphor bronze with gold plating. The housing is constructed from black polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) reinforced with glass fiber, rated UL94 V-0 for flammability. The connector supports a maximum operating temperature range of -55°C to +125°C and carries a current rating of 3A.
