MK LP 43 5 Z

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MK LP 43 5 Z is a low-profile male pin header connector manufactured by Fischer Elektronik. It features a 2.54 mm pitch spacing and contains five contacts arranged in a single row. The connector utilizes brass contact material with tin plating on the posts. Insulation is provided by glass-filled polyamide (PA46) rated UL94 V-0. It supports through-hole soldering and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +163°C.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Low-profile design for space-constrained applications
• Tin-plated brass contacts for reliable connection
• Glass-filled polyamide insulation with UL94 V-0 rating

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Industrial electronic assemblies requiring low profile headers
• Through-hole PCB mounting for signal interconnection
• Consumer electronics with height restrictions

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required contact count and configuration. Confirm that the tin-plated post finish aligns with solderability requirements. Ensure the glass-filled PA46 insulation material meets thermal and mechanical standards for the target environment. Cross-reference datasheet dimensions against PCB footprint constraints before procurement.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile male header with 2.54 mm pitch is required. The tin-plated brass contacts suit general-purpose interconnect needs. Verify compatibility with through-hole assembly processes. Consider the operating temperature range and UL94 V-0 rating for environmental suitability. Ensure the single-row configuration fits the board layout.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Fischer Elektronik MK LP 43 series, which focuses on low-profile male pin headers. The series offers various contact counts while maintaining consistent 2.54 mm pitch spacing. Components in this line are designed for through-hole mounting and utilize durable insulation materials suitable for industrial environments.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include MK LP 43 3 Z and MK LP 43 7 G, differing only in contact count. Verify that alternative parts maintain identical pitch, profile, and termination methods.
