TE Connectivity Micro-Match Series Straight Through Hole PCB Header, 18 Contact(s), 2.54mm Pitch, 2 Row(s), Shrouded

Micro-MaTch Male-on-Board PCB header connectors for use in both vertical and right angle board to board and wire to board interconnections. The Micro-MaTch range of connectors have a compact, space saving design with a 1.27mm pitch. The female contacts of the mating female Micro-MaTch connectors have a contact spring system that prevents fretting corrosion. A positioning spring absorbs movement between the male and female contacts caused by vibration and thermal expansion. Prevention of movement on the contact spot enables a gas tight connection to be made which makes the contact spring system fretting resistant. These Micro-MaTch Male-on-Board PCB headers feature a kinked leg design for secure retention to the PCB and a polarizing pin for accurate alignment.
