M80-8412642

Overview

The Harwin M80-8412642 is a Datamate L-Tek series header connector featuring a 26-position, dual in-line (13+13) configuration with a 2 mm pitch. It utilizes through-hole solder pin termination and right-angle mounting for board-to-board or wire-to-board applications. The male contacts are constructed from phosphor bronze with selective gold plating over tin, rated for 3 A current and 120 V voltage. The black thermoplastic housing provides insulation, while the friction latch mechanism ensures secure mating retention.

Feature Summary

• Dual in-line male contact configuration with integrated friction latch for secure connection retention
• Selective gold plating on contact interfaces to ensure reliable signal transmission
• Right-angle through-hole solder termination designed for compact PCB layout integration

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust interconnects
• Automotive electronics modules
• General purpose electronic equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity by cross-referencing the manufacturer part number against official Harwin documentation. Confirm that the specific ordering suffix matches the required contact finish and housing style. Ensure compatibility with mating receptacles within the same Datamate L-Tek family. Check for end-of-life status or obsolescence notifications prior to final procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a right-angle, latched male header is required for high-density connections. The 2 mm pitch allows for compact spacing compared to standard 2.54 mm connectors. Verify that the 3 A current rating meets the circuit requirements. Ensure the PCB footprint accommodates the right-angle lead configuration and that the mating space allows for the friction latch operation.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Datamate L-Tek product line, which is engineered for demanding environments. The series offers various configurations including single and dual in-line options with different locking mechanisms. The M80-8412642 specifically addresses needs for reliable, high-cycle interconnects in space-constrained designs.

Replacement Considerations

M80-8412642 is an obsolete part. The confirmed public substitute is M80-8412642, described as a Datamate L-Tek 13+13 POS DIL MALE R/A LATCHED TIN/LD connector.
