MTLW-111-05-G-S-185

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MTLW-111-05-G-S-185 is a .100" (2.54 mm) low-profile variable post height terminal strip from the Samtec Flex Stack series. It features a single row of male pin contacts with gold plating on phosphor bronze material. The connector utilizes liquid crystal polymer (LCP) insulation in black, rated for UL 94 V-0 flammability. Designed for through-hole mounting, it offers an operating temperature range of -55°C to +125°C and supports a current rating of 5.2 A. The specific configuration includes 11 positions with a mating post length of 4.953 mm (0.195 in) and a termination post length of 2.037 mm (0.08 in).

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Variable post height design allows for flexible board stacking configurations.
• Low-profile construction optimizes vertical space in dense assemblies.
• Gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts ensure reliable signal transmission.

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections requiring variable stack heights.
• High-density electronic assemblies with limited vertical clearance.
• Industrial control systems needing robust thermal performance.

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the exact part number suffixes against official Samtec documentation to confirm contact plating, insulation material, and post height specifications. Ensure that the selected variant matches the required current rating and temperature range for the intended application environment. Cross-reference RoHS compliance status with the latest manufacturer declarations before procurement.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-row header with adjustable post height is required for precise board alignment. Consider the 2.54 mm pitch and through-hole termination method for standard PCB layouts. Evaluate the 5.2 A current rating and -55°C to +125°C temperature range against system operational demands. Confirm that the LCP insulation and UL 94 V-0 rating meet safety and environmental standards.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the MTLW series, characterized by low-profile variable post height terminals. It is designed for applications where traditional fixed-height headers cannot accommodate varying board thicknesses or stacking requirements. The Flex Stack branding indicates its suitability for compact, high-density interconnect solutions.
