MK 205 86 Z

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MK 205 86 Z is a male pin header connector from Fischer Elektronik, designed for through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards. It features a 2.54 mm pitch spacing and contains 86 contacts arranged in two rows. The connector utilizes brass contact material with specific plating options such as Ni+Au or Ni+Sn to ensure reliable electrical performance. Constructed with glass-filled polyamide insulation, it supports soldering at 260°C for 10 seconds and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +163°C.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Features solder and plug pins with a diameter of 0.5 mm for secure connections
• Designed for reliable electrical connections in demanding industrial environments
• Utilizes glass-filled polyamide insulation material for structural integrity

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections
• Wire-to-board connections
• Industrial electronic assemblies requiring robust headers

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact plating configuration required for your application, as the MK 205 series offers variations such as Ni+Au or Ni+Sn finishes. Confirm that the 86-contact count aligns with your PCB footprint design. Ensure compatibility with standard 2.54 mm pitch mating connectors. Check thermal resistance ratings against your soldering process parameters to prevent damage during assembly.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density, two-row male header is needed for through-hole implementation. The 0.5 mm pin diameter suits applications requiring precise alignment. Consider the operating temperature range of -40°C to +163°C for environmental suitability. Verify that the brass contact material meets the conductivity requirements of your signal lines. Ensure the glass-filled PA46 insulation provides adequate mechanical stability for your assembly.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Fischer Elektronik MK 205 series, which specializes in male pin headers for PCB applications. The series includes various contact counts and pitch configurations, all sharing common design characteristics like 0.5 mm pin diameters and industrial-grade insulation materials. This specific model represents a mid-range contact count option within the broader product family.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 2.54 mm pitch, 86-pin count, and two-row through-hole format. Verify identical pin diameter (0.5 mm) and insulation material properties. Cross-reference plating specifications if corrosion resistance is critical. No generic industry alternatives are confirmed without explicit datasheet verification.
