Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm plating specifications and reel quantities. Ensure the selected variant matches the required contact count and pitch for your design. Confirm compatibility with standard reflow soldering profiles before finalizing procurement orders.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a 21-position surface mount header is required. Verify that the 0.100 inch pitch aligns with the target PCB footprint. Consider the push-pull retention method if mechanical stability during operation is a priority over simple press-fit solutions.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the SL 10 SMD 040 series of compact male headers from Fischer Elektronik. The series offers various contact counts and pitch options tailored for space-constrained applications requiring reliable surface mount connectivity.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes require matching the 21-position count, 2.54mm pitch, and surface mount termination. Verify that alternative manufacturers offer compatible push-pull mechanisms and similar insulation heights.
