RM672-162-332-9501

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The RM672-162-332-9501 is a rectangular MIL-spec connector from the AirBorn R Series, manufactured by Molex. It is a right-angle board mount plug with a plastic body and six rows of contacts. The component features a 1.91 mm pitch and supports 162 circuits. Termination is achieved via through-hole mounting with pre-tinned tin/lead alloy contacts. The design includes mounting ears for secure installation and installed guide pins to ensure proper alignment during mating.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Right-angle board mount configuration with plastic housing
• Six-row contact arrangement for high-density interconnects
• Through-hole termination with pre-tinned tin/lead alloy contacts
• Integrated mounting ears and guide pins for alignment

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Military and aerospace electronic systems
• Avionics equipment interconnections
• Ruggedized communication hardware
• Defense instrumentation panels

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific termination plating and polarization settings against project requirements, as variations exist within the R Series. Confirm RoHS compliance status, as some variants are non-compliant. Ensure compatibility with existing guide pin configurations and panel cutouts. Validate that the pre-tinned finish meets soldering process specifications for the target assembly line.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this model when a right-angle, six-row MIL-DTL-55302 compliant connector is required. The 162-position capacity suits applications needing dense signal routing in constrained spaces. The through-hole termination with mounting ears provides mechanical stability. Consider the pre-tinned finish for ease of assembly if leaded solder processes are permitted.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the AirBorn R Series, a family of rectangular MIL-spec connectors known for reliability in harsh environments. The series offers various row counts, pitches, and termination options. The RM672 prefix indicates a specific housing style and circuit count range within the broader product portfolio designed for board-to-board or cable-to-board connections.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the MIL-DTL-55302 specification, 1.91 mm pitch, 162 positions, and right-angle form factor. Verify that any alternative maintains the same guide pin configuration and mounting ear dimensions to ensure mechanical interchangeability without redesigning the host PCB or panel.
