Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'D01' against the base part number when sourcing, as it may indicate specific packaging or variant details not present in the standard designation. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer, as regulatory requirements vary by region and production batch. Ensure the through-hole termination method matches the target PCB layout design constraints before finalizing procurement orders.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this model for applications requiring strict adherence to MIL-DTL-55302 standards. The 2.54 mm pitch suits dense board layouts. Verify that the 5 A current rating meets circuit demands. Consider the straight mounting angle and lack of mounting ears if space is constrained. Compare against socket counterparts like WTA20PCJL for mating compatibility.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to the AirBorn W Series, a line of high-reliability rectangular connectors. The series offers various contact counts and termination styles. The WTA prefix denotes a straight plug configuration. This specific part represents a standard through-hole variant within the broader family of military-grade interconnect solutions provided by Molex / AirBorn.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

M55302/63B20F is a documented alias for this component. Cross-reference with other W Series plugs having identical 20-position, 2-row, through-hole specifications. Ensure mating receptacles share the same MIL-DTL-55302 compliance and physical dimensions for interchangeability.
