MTMS-118-51-G-S-150

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MTMS-118-51-G-S-150 is a board stacking connector manufactured by Samtec Inc. It features 18 contacts arranged in a single row of male pins. The connector utilizes a straight, through-hole solder terminal interface with a 1.27 mm (0.050 inch) pin spacing. Constructed with phosphor bronze contacts and gold over nickel plating, it employs liquid crystal polymer (LCP) insulation. This component is designed for variable post height applications, allowing for flexible board-to-board or mezzanine connections.
