Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Molex/AirBorn documentation to confirm termination style, tail length, and guide set configurations. Ensure compatibility with mating receptacles such as the RM322 series. Confirm RoHS status and environmental compliance requirements prior to procurement, as variations exist within the R Series product line.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-pin-count, right-angle plug is required for MIL-DTL-55302 applications. The 182-position capacity suits dense signal routing needs. Verify that the 1.91 mm pitch aligns with PCB layout constraints. Ensure the 3 A current rating per contact meets system power distribution requirements without derating issues.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn R Series, a family of rectangular connectors known for durability in harsh environments. The R Series offers various row counts and position options. The RM352 prefix typically denotes a plug configuration, distinguishing it from receptacle variants like the RM322 series. This specific model provides a balance of high density and standard military interface compatibility.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible mating parts include RM322-series receptacles with matching position counts. Cross-reference with other manufacturers' MIL-DTL-55302 equivalents if supply chain constraints require alternative sourcing. Verify dimensional tolerances and mounting ear configurations to ensure mechanical fit during replacement.
