SL 10 SMD 040 10 S

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The Fischer Elektronik SL 10 SMD 040 10 S is a surface mount male header connector featuring ten positions with a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch. It utilizes a single row configuration designed for board-to-board or wire-to-board applications. The contacts are constructed from copper alloy, plated with gold over nickel to ensure reliable signal transmission and corrosion resistance. The housing is made of glass-filled polyamide, rated UL 94 V-0 for flame retardancy. Operating temperatures range from -40°C to +163°C.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Surface mount design compatible with automated pick-and-place assembly processes
• Gold-plated contact surfaces provide durable electrical connectivity
• High-temperature resistant polyamide insulation supports reflow soldering profiles

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections in compact electronic modules
• Wire-to-board connections requiring surface mount termination
• Industrial control systems operating within specified thermal limits

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Fischer Elektronik documentation to confirm contact count and plating specifications. Ensure compatibility with your PCB footprint and reflow soldering profile requirements before procurement.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, single-row male header is required for surface mount technology. Confirm that the 2.54 mm pitch aligns with mating connector standards and that the thermal rating suits the operational environment.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the SL series of connectors from Fischer Elektronik, which offers various configurations for different mounting styles and contact counts. The SL 10 variant specifically addresses needs for moderate density interconnects in space-constrained designs.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 2.54 mm pitch, single row, 10-position format, and surface mount capability. Verify mechanical dimensions and plating thickness to ensure interchangeability without redesign.
