M80-8261042

Overview

The M80-8261042 is a Datamate L-Tek series male pin header manufactured by Harwin Inc. It features a 10-position configuration arranged in two rows with a 2.00mm (0.079 inch) pitch. The connector utilizes through-hole termination and tin/lead contact plating. Designed for board-to-board or wire-to-board applications, it offers vertical orientation and unlatched mounting. The component supports a rated voltage of 120.0 V and a current capacity of 3.0 A, suitable for general industrial environments.

Feature Summary

• Datamate L-Tek high-reliability design engineered to withstand vibration, shock, and temperature extremes
• Vertical male pin header configuration with unlatched mounting style
• Through-hole termination method compatible with standard PCB assembly processes

Applications

• General industrial electronic assemblies
• Board-to-board interconnection systems
• Wire-to-board connection modules

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact plating specification during procurement, as datasheet references may vary between tin/lead and gold options depending on the exact suffix requirements. Confirm that the unlatched version aligns with mechanical retention needs, as latched variants exist within the same series. Ensure compatibility with mating female sockets from the Datamate L-Tek family to guarantee proper interface alignment and electrical continuity.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a vertical, unlatched male header is required for 2.00mm pitch applications. The tin/lead plating offers cost-effective connectivity for non-corrosive environments. Consider the Datamate Mix-Tek or J-Tek series if locking mechanisms or cable termination are necessary instead of rigid board mounting. Validate that the 3.0A current rating meets the circuit load requirements without excessive thermal rise.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Harwin Datamate L-Tek family, known for high-performance rectangular connectors. The M80-8261042 specifically serves as a male header counterpart to female receptacles. Its design emphasizes robustness in demanding conditions, distinguishing it from standard commercial-grade headers through enhanced material selection and structural integrity testing protocols defined by the manufacturer.
