MK LP 40 5 G

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MK LP 40 5 G is a low-profile male header connector manufactured by Fischer Elektronik. It features a 2.54 mm pitch with five contacts arranged in a single row. The component utilizes copper zinc contact material and polyamide (PA46) insulation, rated for UL 94 V-0 flammability. Designed for through-hole straight mounting, it supports solder termination and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +163°C. The tin-plated contact surface ensures reliable electrical connection.
