Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Samtec documentation to confirm exact pin length and plating specifications. Ensure compatibility with mating connectors regarding the 0.255 inch post dimension. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level prior to procurement. Cross-reference the part number with authorized distributors to avoid counterfeit components.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when precise vertical spacing adjustment is required without custom manufacturing. The single-row configuration suits low-density signal routing. Verify that the 0.100 inch pitch aligns with existing PCB footprint standards. Consider the operating temperature range for environmental suitability in the target application.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

The MTSW series represents a variation of the classic TSW header strip, offering flexible stacking solutions. It belongs to Samtec's Flex Stack family, designed for applications needing non-standard heights. This specific model provides a fixed variable height option within the broader configurable lineup.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other MTSW variants with different pin lengths or row counts. Generic equivalents are not recommended due to the proprietary Flex Stack geometry. Consult Samtec catalogs for cross-referenced parts with matching pitch and termination styles.
