• Defense equipment interconnects

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official AirBorn documentation to confirm exact termination length and mating compatibility. Ensure the selected variant matches the required PCB footprint and thermal profile for dip soldering processes. Cross-reference the part number with current RoHS compliance declarations to meet regulatory standards for the intended deployment region.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component based on the requirement for a 15-contact right-angle interface with a standard 2.54 mm pitch. Confirm that the male pin configuration aligns with the corresponding receptacle counterpart in the system design. Evaluate the mechanical stability provided by the dip solder termination method against the vibration requirements of the target application environment.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the WT series of connectors from AirBorn, which are engineered for rugged environments including aerospace and defense sectors. The series offers various contact counts and termination options to support diverse board-to-board and cable-to-board connectivity needs within compact form factors.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other WT series variants such as WT16PRD8 or WT18PRD8, provided the contact count difference is acceptable for the design. Direct replacements must maintain the same 2.54 mm pitch and right-angle orientation to ensure mechanical fit.
