M80-5500805

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The M80-5500805 is a Datamate J-Tek male header connector manufactured by Harwin. It features an 8+8 position configuration with a 2 mm pitch, designed for through-board mounting. The contacts are gold-plated beryllium copper pins housed in black polyphenylene sulfide (PPS). Rated for 3 A current and 800 VAC/DC voltage, it operates within a temperature range of -55 °C to +125 °C. The unit weight is approximately 1.398 g.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• High-reliability Datamate J-Tek series interconnect system
• Gold-plated beryllium copper contacts for stable conductivity
• Polyphenylene sulfide housing material for thermal stability
• Vertical through-board mounting style with solder pin termination

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring high reliability
• Test and measurement equipment interfaces
• Medical device power connections
• Automotive electronics modules

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact count and orientation against the datasheet before ordering. Ensure compatibility with mating female sockets from the same Datamate J-Tek family. Confirm that the vertical mounting style and solder pin termination meet the PCB layout requirements. Check for RoHS compliance status if required by project specifications.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust, high-current power-to-board connection is needed. The 2 mm pitch allows for higher current capacity compared to smaller pitches. The gold plating ensures low contact resistance over many cycles. Consider the vertical form factor for space-constrained board designs where cable exit is not required.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Harwin Datamate J-Tek line, known for its durability and performance in harsh environments. The M80 prefix indicates a standard connector housing or header. The suffix 0805 denotes the specific size and contact configuration within the product matrix. It is distinct from L-Tek variants which may have different locking mechanisms.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

No direct substitute part numbers are publicly confirmed in the provided documentation. Cross-reference with other Harwin Datamate J-Tek headers of identical pin count and pitch if sourcing issues arise. Verify mechanical dimensions and electrical ratings match exactly before substituting.
