WG160PR9SY-1

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The WG160PR9SY-1 is a rectangular MIL-DTL-55302 compliant plug connector from the AirBorn W Series. It features 160 positions arranged in three rows with a 2.54 mm pitch. Designed for board mount installation, it utilizes through-hole termination and male pin contacts. The housing is constructed from Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS), while contacts are gold-plated copper alloy. Rated for 5 A current and 1 kV voltage, it operates within a temperature range of -65 °C to +125 °C.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Complies with MIL-DTL-55302 military specifications for rugged reliability.
• Features right-angle mounting configuration for space-efficient board integration.
• Utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts for stable signal transmission.

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Avionics systems requiring high-density interconnects
• Military communication equipment
• Ruggedized electronic instrumentation

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific polarization guide set number required for your application, as this variant includes a guide set mechanism. Confirm that the through-hole tail length matches your PCB design constraints. Ensure compatibility with mating receptacles within the same W Series family to maintain proper alignment and electrical continuity during assembly.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this model when a 160-position, three-row right-angle plug is necessary for MIL-Spec environments. The 2.54 mm pitch accommodates standard wire gauges such as 22 AWG. Consider the PPS housing material for thermal stability and the gold plating for corrosion resistance in demanding operational conditions compared to non-military alternatives.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to the AirBorn W Series, a line of rectangular connectors designed for harsh environments. The series offers various position counts and row configurations, all sharing common interface standards. The WG160PR9SY-1 specifically addresses high-density needs within the two-inch form factor constraint typical of this series.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Equivalent part numbers include M55302/138C160Y. Verify mechanical dimensions and contact arrangement before substitution to ensure fitment on existing printed circuit boards without modification.
