TSW-129-26-L-S

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The TSW-129-26-L-S is a single-row, through-hole PCB header strip manufactured by Samtec Inc. under the TSW series. It features 26 positions with a 0.100-inch (2.54 mm) pitch and utilizes .025-inch square posts. The connector employs a Tiger Buy contact system with gold plating on the mating interface and tin plating on the termination tails. Designed for board-to-board or cable applications, it operates within a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C and meets UL 94 V-0 flammability standards.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Utilizes the Tiger Buy contact system for cost-effective, high-retention interconnection.
• Features industry-leading design flexibility with extensive options for pin counts, terminal lengths, and lead styles.
• Constructed with phosphor bronze contacts and PBT insulation for reliable performance in general-purpose applications.

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections
• Cable-to-board connections
• General-purpose PCB header strips

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the official Samtec TSW catalog to confirm exact pin count, row configuration, and plating specifications. Ensure compatibility with mating socket strips such as the SSW series. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level requirements for your assembly process before procurement.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component for standard 0.100 inch pitch applications requiring through-hole mounting. Consider the TSW series for its wide variety of standard pin counts and terminal length options. Evaluate the gold versus tin plating options based on environmental exposure and cost constraints for the specific design.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the TSW Classic PCB Header Strips family, designed for versatile connectivity solutions. The series offers numerous lead styles and ruggedizing features to optimize cost and performance. It serves as a fundamental interconnect solution for electronics manufacturing requiring reliable signal transmission.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible mating connectors include the SSW series socket strips. Verify that any substitute header maintains the same 0.100 inch pitch and physical footprint dimensions to ensure proper alignment and mechanical fit within the existing design.
