M80-6812042P

Overview

The M80-6812042P is a Datamate L-Tek socket assembly featuring 20 positions arranged in two rows. It utilizes a 2 mm (0.079 inch) mating pitch and employs a crimp termination method for wire connections. The connector housing is constructed from black polyamide material, providing structural integrity. Contact surfaces are finished with tin plating to ensure reliable electrical conductivity. This component supports board-to-wire applications within the Harwin interconnect ecosystem.

Feature Summary

• Crimp termination interface designed for secure wire harness integration
• Polyamide housing construction offering durable insulation properties
• Tin-plated contacts ensuring consistent signal transmission reliability

Applications

• Board-to-wire interconnection systems
• Wire harness assembly integration
• Industrial control panel wiring

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'P' against official Harwin documentation to confirm its exact functional implication, as standard datasheets may list base part numbers without suffix variations. Ensure compatibility with required crimping tools and wire gauges specified in the technical manual before procurement. Cross-reference the manufacturer's latest revision history to avoid obsolete configurations.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, crimp-style female connector is required for board-to-wire applications. The 2 mm pitch allows for dense packing of circuits while maintaining adequate spacing. Verify that the application environment does not exceed the thermal ratings of the polyamide housing and tin contacts. Confirm mechanical retention requirements match the friction latch or latched design features typical of the L-Tek series.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Datamate L-Tek family, which focuses on compact, high-density interconnect solutions. The L-Tek series distinguishes itself by offering versatile termination options including crimp and solder variants. It serves as a critical link between PCB-mounted headers and flexible wiring harnesses in space-constrained electronic assemblies.
