ZSS-104-03-S-S-740-LL

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The ZSS-104-03-S-S-740-LL is a .100" (2.54 mm) pitch shrouded elevated terminal strip manufactured by Samtec Inc. It features a single row of four male pin contacts with gold plating on phosphor bronze substrates. Designed for through-hole termination, this header utilizes a polyester insulation housing rated UL 94 V-0. The component incorporates a Flex Stack design allowing modified post height and body position adjustments in 0.005" increments. Overall contact length measures 0.830" (21.08 mm), while the insulation height is specified at 0.740" (18.80 mm).

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Elevated shroud design facilitates blind mating applications.
• Flex Stack architecture enables precise modification of post height and body positioning.
• Gold-plated square post contacts ensure reliable electrical connectivity.

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Blind mating connector interfaces
• Board stacking configurations
• General purpose vertical interconnects

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm contact finish and insulation height variations. Ensure the selected variant matches the required Flex Stack adjustment capabilities. Confirm RoHS compliance status and UL recognition numbers against current manufacturer documentation before finalizing procurement specifications.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when blind mating requirements necessitate an elevated shroud structure. The Flex Stack feature allows for mechanical tolerance compensation during assembly. Verify that the single-row configuration and through-hole termination method align with the target PCB layout constraints and signal integrity requirements.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the ZSS series of shrouded, elevated terminal strips designed for .100" spacing. The series offers customizable body positions and post heights to accommodate diverse mechanical integration needs. It serves as a robust interconnect solution within Samtec's broader portfolio of high-reliability board-to-board and wire-to-board connectors.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Consult official Samtec substitution guides for compatible headers within the ZSS family. Verify dimensional compatibility and electrical ratings before replacing existing inventory. Generic equivalents may not support the proprietary Flex Stack adjustment mechanism or specific shroud geometry.
