SL 10 SMD 040 10 G

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The Fischer Elektronik SL 10 SMD 040 10 G is a surface mount male pin header featuring a 2.54 mm pitch and 10 positions in a single row. It utilizes gold-plated contacts with a thickness of 7.87 µin (0.200 µm) for reliable signal transmission. The connector is constructed from glass-fiber reinforced polyamide (PA46/nylon 4/6) insulation, supporting a temperature range of -40°C to +163°C. Designed for direct PCB mounting, it offers a compact profile suitable for high-density electronic assemblies requiring robust mechanical stability.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Surface mount design for automated pick-and-place assembly processes
• Gold-plated contact surfaces ensuring corrosion resistance and stable conductivity
• Glass-fiber reinforced polyamide insulation providing thermal stability

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections in compact electronic modules
• Wire-to-board connections in consumer electronics
• Industrial control system interface panels

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'G' confirms gold plating rather than tin or nickel variants. Ensure the package type matches production requirements, as options include bar magazines or tape and reel configurations. Confirm compatibility with mating connectors from the SL series before finalizing procurement orders.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when surface mount technology is required for 2.54 mm pitch applications. The gold plating is essential for environments demanding long-term oxidation resistance. Verify that the single-row configuration fits within the available PCB footprint constraints and aligns with mating connector specifications.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the SL 10 SMD series, which provides various contact counts ranging from 4 to 130 positions. The series is characterized by its low-profile design and suitability for automated manufacturing. It serves as a standard solution for connecting flexible flat cables or rigid boards in space-constrained industrial and commercial devices.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other Fischer Elektronik headers with identical 2.54 mm pitch and gold plating, such as SL 10 SMD 040 10 Z for tin-plated alternatives. Cross-reference mating pins from the SL 26 or SL 27 series to ensure mechanical fit and electrical continuity.
