TFM-135-01-H-D-RA

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The TFM-135-01-H-D-RA is a high-reliability board-to-board connector from the Tiger Eye series. It features a 1.27 mm (0.05 in) pitch with 70 contacts arranged in two rows. The male header utilizes gold-plated phosphor bronze terminals and a black liquid crystal polymer (LCP) shrouded housing. Designed for right-angle through-hole mounting, it supports signal currents up to 3.7 A per contact at 250 VAC. The component operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C and meets UL 94 V-0 flammability standards.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• High-reliability design optimized for demanding environments
• Shrouded polarized housing prevents misalignment during mating
• Right-angle configuration facilitates compact board stacking

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-Board interconnects
• Wire-to-Board connections
• High-density electronic assemblies

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number suffix matches the required right-angle orientation and pin count. Confirm that the manufacturer source provides official datasheets for the Tiger Eye series specifications. Ensure compatibility with standard surface-mount or through-hole assembly processes as defined by the terminal type. Cross-reference the electrical ratings against the system requirements before procurement.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a right-angle connection is necessary for space-constrained designs. The 1.27 mm pitch offers a balance between density and manufacturability. The shrouded design ensures precise alignment, which is critical for high-reliability applications. Consider the thermal operating range and current rating to ensure suitability for the intended power and signal loads.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to Samtec's Tiger Eye family, known for robust performance in high-cycle applications. The TFM series specifically addresses needs for reliable interconnects in industrial and commercial electronics. The model designation indicates a double-row male header with high-current capability and right-angle termination.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other Samtec Tiger Eye headers with matching pitch and row count, such as the TFM-135-01-S-D-RA for single-contact current variations. Verify that any replacement maintains the same shrouded, polarized housing structure and right-angle mounting style to preserve mechanical integrity.
