MK 51 19 Z

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The Fischer Elektronik MK 51 19 Z is a male pin header connector designed for through-hole PCB mounting. It features 19 positions with a standard 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch spacing. The contacts are constructed from CuZn-alloy and utilize a precise 0.5 mm diameter rectangular connection profile for reliable soldering. The contact surface finish consists of tin-plated sleeves, while the contact area includes a nickel underlayer with gold plating to ensure stable electrical performance.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Features a 0.5 mm diameter rectangular PCB connection profile for secure solder joints
• Utilizes CuZn-alloy contact material with specific surface treatments for durability
• Designed for efficient electronic assembly using through-hole mounting technology

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• General-purpose electronic circuit board interconnections
• Signal transmission in industrial control systems
• Prototype development and testing setups

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix 'Z' against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm the specific contact surface treatment and packaging configuration. Ensure the required through-hole footprint matches the 2.54 mm pitch specification before ordering. Cross-reference the contact material composition with your environmental compliance requirements.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a 19-position male header is required for rigid PCB connections. The rectangular pin design offers superior mechanical stability compared to round pins. Consider the tin-plated sleeve and gold-contact combination for applications requiring corrosion resistance and low contact impedance.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Fischer Elektronik MK 51 series of male headers. The series is characterized by its robust construction and standardized 2.54 mm pitch, making it suitable for a wide range of commercial and industrial electronics. The MK 51 line provides various position counts to accommodate different circuit density needs.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other Fischer Elektronik headers within the MK 51 family, such as the MK 51 9 Z or MK 51 9 G, provided the position count differs but the pitch and mounting style remain identical. Verify that any alternative maintains the same 0.5 mm rectangular pin geometry for proper fit.
