SL 10 SMD 040 7 G SM

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The Fischer Elektronik SL 10 SMD 040 7 G SM is a surface mount male pin header featuring a 2.54 mm pitch and 7 positions in a single row. It utilizes gold-plated contacts with a thickness of 7.87 µin (0.200 µm) on copper-tin terminals. The connector has an insulation height of 0.110 inches (2.80 mm) and a mating contact length of 0.157 inches (4.00 mm). Constructed from glass-fiber reinforced polyamide (PA46), it operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +163°C.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Surface mount design optimized for pick-and-place assembly processes
• Gold-plated contact surfaces ensure reliable electrical performance
• Push-pull fastening mechanism secures the connection

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections
• Wire-to-board connections
• Compact electronic device assemblies

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'G SM' confirms both the gold plating finish and the bar magazine packaging format. Ensure the part number matches the required 7-position count and single-row configuration. Confirm that the supplier provides the official datasheet for the SL 10 SMD series to validate the thermal and mechanical specifications prior to integration.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, single-row surface mount header is required. The 2.54 mm pitch is standard for general-purpose interconnects. Gold plating is necessary for applications requiring high corrosion resistance or frequent mating cycles. Verify that the PCB footprint accommodates the specified insulation height and that the manufacturing process supports the push-pull locking style.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the SL 10 SMD series, which offers various position counts ranging from 4 to 20 contacts. The series is characterized by its compact form factor and suitability for automated surface mount technology lines. Different suffixes indicate variations in contact plating and packaging methods, allowing customization for specific production needs.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Fischer Elektronik SL 10 SMD variants with matching 7-position counts and gold plating, such as SL 10 SMD 040 7 G B TR if tape-and-reel packaging is preferred. Cross-manufacturer replacements require verifying identical 2.54 mm pitch, single-row layout, and compatible mounting dimensions.
