Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the exact part number against official Samtec documentation to ensure correct pin count, row configuration, and terminal length. Confirm compliance with RoHS and REACH regulations if required for your region. Check for any specific handling instructions related to the through-hole soldering process. Ensure the selected variant matches the required mating height and environmental operating conditions.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a flexible board stacking solution with a 2.54 mm pitch is needed. The MTLW series allows for customizing the effective height of the header by adjusting the position of the body on the terminal pin. Consider the mechanical strength provided by the square post design for applications subject to vibration or stress during operation.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the Flex Stack MTLW family, which specializes in low-profile board stacking headers. The series is characterized by its ability to offer variable post heights in increments, providing designers with flexibility in creating custom stacking solutions without requiring specialized manufacturing processes.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Consult Samtec's official cross-reference tools for direct substitutes. Similar parts within the MTLW series may differ in contact count, row configuration, or terminal length. Ensure any replacement maintains the same pitch, mounting style, and electrical ratings.
