Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against the manufacturer datasheet to confirm tail length and jackset variations. Ensure compatibility with mating receptacles in the same W Series family. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the supplier or official documentation prior to procurement.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this model for applications requiring high-density connections in constrained spaces due to its 2.54 mm pitch. The straight, through-hole mounting style suits standard PCB assembly processes. Verify that the 40-position count matches the circuit requirements and that the pin contact type aligns with the mating socket interface.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to the AirBorn W Series, a line of rectangular connectors designed for demanding environments. The series includes various configurations of plugs and receptacles with different contact counts and termination styles, all sharing common mechanical and electrical standards defined by the MIL-DTL-55302 specification.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other MIL-DTL-55302 compliant connectors with matching 40-position, 2-row, through-hole plug configurations. Cross-reference part numbers such as M55302/63B40P if available from authorized distributors, ensuring identical pitch and contact gender.
