ZSS-115-06-G-S-1040

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The ZSS-115-06-G-S-1040 is a .100" pitch shrouded elevated terminal strip from Samtec's Flex Stack series. It features a single row with six positions and gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts. The connector utilizes through-hole termination with square tails. Key dimensions include a .090" contact length, a 1.040" insulation height, and a .250" mating contact length. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C and carries UL recognition E111594.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Flex Stack design allows modified post height and body position in increments for blind mating applications
• Elevated shroud structure facilitates reliable connection in blind mating scenarios
• Gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts ensure durable electrical performance

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Blind mating applications requiring elevated shrouds
• Board-to-board or cable connections needing precise alignment
• Automotive A-Series product configurations

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Samtec documentation to confirm exact pin count, plating thickness, and tail configuration. Ensure the selected variant matches the required insulation height and mating interface specifications for the target assembly. Cross-reference the part number with the latest series print to avoid discrepancies in physical dimensions or material composition.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when blind mating requires an elevated profile to accommodate board stack-up variations. The Flex Stack architecture permits incremental adjustments to body position. Verify that the single-row configuration meets the circuit density requirements. Confirm compatibility with the mating header's post dimensions and shroud style to ensure proper engagement and retention.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the ZSS series of shrouded elevated terminal strips. The series is characterized by its ability to provide flexible positioning options for reliable interconnects. It is designed for high-reliability applications where standard headers may not suffice due to mechanical constraints or mating depth variations.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Consult Samtec's official substitution guide for direct equivalents. Generic connectors may lack the specific Flex Stack elevation capabilities and shroud geometry required for blind mating. Verify that any substitute maintains the .100" pitch and compatible contact system.

Headers, Male Pins FAQ

What is the primary function of the elevated shroud?

The elevated shroud is designed specifically for blind mating applications, allowing for reliable connection without visual alignment.

How does the Flex Stack design benefit the assembly?

It allows modified post height and body position in .005" increments, providing flexibility in board stacking and alignment.
