RM372-059-311-5500

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The RM372-059-311-5500 is a rectangular MIL-spec connector from the AirBorn R Series, manufactured by Molex. It functions as a right-angle plug with 59 positions arranged in three rows. Designed for board mount installation, it utilizes through-hole termination with gold-plated beryllium copper contacts. The housing is constructed from Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS). Electrical ratings include a current capacity of 3 A and a voltage rating of 750 V. The operating temperature range spans from -65 C to +125 C, with a contact pitch of 1.91 mm.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Complies with MIL-DTL-55302 military specifications for rugged reliability.
• Features a right-angle form factor suitable for space-constrained board mounting.
• Utilizes gold-plated contacts on a PPS plastic body for corrosion resistance.

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Military avionics systems requiring high-density interconnects.
• Ruggedized electronic enclosures subject to harsh environmental conditions.
• Defense communication equipment needing reliable signal transmission.

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer part number against official Molex documentation to ensure compatibility with mating receptacles. Confirm that the right-angle orientation and pin configuration match the target PCB layout requirements. Check for any updated RoHS compliance status or alternative suffixes that may indicate minor manufacturing variations. Ensure sourcing channels are authorized to guarantee component authenticity.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-density, right-angle male connector is required for MIL-spec applications. The 59-position count and 1.91 mm pitch define the interface density. Consider the 3 A current rating and 750 V insulation limits for circuit design. The through-hole termination method dictates the PCB fabrication process. Verify thermal stability requirements against the specified -65 C to +125 C operational range.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn R Series, a line of rectangular connectors designed for demanding environments. The series offers various position counts and row configurations. As a Molex product, it adheres to strict quality standards. The RM372 prefix indicates a specific plug variant within the broader family of MIL-DTL-55302 compatible components.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the MIL-DTL-55302 standard, 59-position count, and right-angle geometry. Cross-referencing with other manufacturers requires verifying identical pinout, pitch, and mechanical dimensions. Ensure mating receptacle compatibility before substitution.
