Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer, as documentation indicates specific details are required rather than a blanket certification. Confirm that the specific suffix JTA corresponds to the intended contact termination style and orientation. Ensure mating receptacles match the 20-position, 2-row configuration and compatible contact gender to guarantee proper assembly and electrical continuity.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this part when a straight, board-mount plug is required for high-reliability applications. The 2.54 mm pitch suits standard density requirements. Verify that the operating environment stays within the specified -65 C to +125 C range. Consider the gold plating for corrosion resistance in harsh conditions. Ensure the PCB layout accommodates the through-hole termination method and the physical dimensions of the W Series housing.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to the AirBorn W Series, designed for board-to-board or cable-to-board connections in demanding environments. The series offers various contact counts and termination options. As a Molex company product, it integrates into broader interconnect solutions for defense and aerospace sectors, emphasizing robust mechanical performance and consistent electrical characteristics under stress.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible mating parts include WTA series receptacles with matching 20-position configurations. Direct substitutes require identical MIL-DTL-55302 compliance and dimensional compatibility. Cross-reference with other manufacturers' MIL-DTL-55302 equivalents only if form, fit, and function data sheets confirm exact parameter alignment.
