MK 14 X 3 7 Z

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The Fischer Elektronik MK 14 X 3 7 Z is a male pin header connector designed for through-hole PCB mounting. It features a single row with seven positions and a standard 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch. The contacts are constructed from CuZn alloy, offering a tin-plated finish with specific gold and nickel plating options in the broader MK 14 X 3 series. The component supports parallel PCB connections using circular contacts with a 0.5 mm diameter. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +163°C and withstands soldering conditions of 260°C for 10 seconds.

• Constructed with durable CuZn alloy contacts for stable electrical performance

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-Board interconnections
• Wire-to-Board connections
• Parallel PCB assembly systems

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the exact plating specification required for your application, as the MK 14 X 3 series includes variants with different surface finishes such as tin or gold-nickel combinations. Confirm that the 7-position configuration matches your circuit design requirements. Ensure compatibility with standard 2.54 mm pitch mating connectors. Check thermal resistance ratings against your soldering process profile to guarantee joint integrity during assembly.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a straight, single-row male header is needed for rigid PCB stacking or wiring harness attachment. The 0.5 mm contact diameter allows for dense parallel connections. Consider the operating temperature range of -40°C to +163°C for environmental suitability. Choose based on the required number of positions, ensuring the 7-pin variant fits the specific footprint and signal count of the target design.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Fischer Elektronik MK 14 X 3 family of male headers. The series is characterized by its use in high-quality solder and plug pin applications. Other variants in this family differ primarily in the number of positions, ranging from smaller configurations to larger arrays like the 26-position version, while maintaining the same 2.54 mm pitch and structural design principles.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 2.54 mm pitch, 7-position count, and through-hole mounting style. Verify that alternative manufacturers offer compatible contact diameters and current ratings. Ensure the replacement part supports the same mechanical retention and solderability standards required for the original assembly process.
