Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation to confirm the exact contact surface finish, as variations exist between tin-plated and gold/nickel-plated versions. Ensure the selected variant matches the required environmental and electrical specifications for the intended application. Cross-reference official datasheets for precise dimensional tolerances and thermal characteristics before procurement.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component based on the requirement for a 20-position single-row header with a 2.54 mm pitch. Consider the mechanical stability provided by the through-hole straight mounting style. Evaluate the contact material and plating options against corrosion resistance and conductivity needs. Confirm compatibility with mating connectors and PCB layout constraints.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Fischer Elektronik MK 14 X 3 series of pin headers. The series offers various contact counts ranging from one to multiple positions, all maintaining a consistent 2.54 mm pitch. These connectors are engineered for robust electrical connections in diverse electronic assemblies, providing flexibility in contact quantity while preserving standardized spacing.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other Fischer Elektronik MK 14 X 3 variants with different contact counts, such as MK 14 X 3 7 Z or MK 14 X 3 6 Z, provided the pin count difference is acceptable. Ensure any replacement maintains the 2.54 mm pitch and through-hole straight mounting profile.
