1.27mm Pitch Double Row Simple Box Header, 2×10P, Through Hole Straight Pin, PA6T Housing, 0.8μ Gold Plating, 48 Hours Salt Spray Resistance

Description

Our 1.27mm pitch simple box header, also widely known as simple box male connector, is a reliable through-hole straight pin connector engineered for printed circuit board (PCB) soldering applications. This 2×10P double row simple box header adopts high-performance PA6T plastic as insulator housing material, featuring excellent heat resistance, mechanical strength and dimensional stability even under continuous high-temperature soldering environment.

This simple box header comes with plastic height of 5.0mm, product overall length of 7.4mm , and 2.5mm PC-side pin length for PCB soldering. All conductive contact pins are plated with 0.8-micron gold to guarantee stable electrical conductivity, low contact resistance and outstanding anti-corrosion capability. The connector housing passes strict 48-hour salt spray test, which greatly enhances its anti-rust and anti-oxidation performance when applied in humid, corrosive and harsh working surroundings.

Different from box header with side latches (commonly called cow horn connector), this simple box header removes integrated side locking ears, featuring compact outline, simple structure and lower assembly cost while retaining stable mating function to match corresponding IDC female receptacles. It adopts through-hole straight pin design, pins go through PCB holes for wave soldering assembly. This mounting method provides firm bonding strength between connector and circuit board, effectively resisting vibration and mechanical pulling force during equipment operation.

The 1.27mm pitch specification makes it suitable for electronic products with limited internal space. Double-row 2×10P pin layout can realize multi-channel signal and power transmission at the same time. PA6T plastic insulator owns superior thermal performance, it will not deform easily during wave soldering process, and maintains stable insulation property under long-time working temperature fluctuation. The gold plating of 0.8μ on contact terminals effectively prevents oxidation of metal contacts, ensures consistent signal transmission and reduces failure risk caused by poor contact.

Our simple box header undergoes full quality inspection before delivery. Each finished connector will go through appearance inspection, dimension measurement, conductivity testing and salt spray aging verification. We strictly control dimensional tolerance for every product parameter to ensure each batch can match customer drawing requirements. Custom service is available, including pin length modification, plating options, pin count adjustment and customized packaging solutions according to customer’s unique project demands. This simple box header can perfectly mate with matching IDC cable receptacles, widely used for internal wiring connection between PCB boards inside electronic devices. It is a cost-effective and high-reliability board-to-cable connecting solution for consumer electronics, industrial control equipment and automation modules.

FAQ

Q1: What is the difference between simple box header and box header (cow horn connector)?

A: Simple box header does not have side lock latches. Cow horn box header is equipped with integrated side latches for locking IDC receptacle. Both can mate with corresponding IDC female socket. Simple box header has smaller size and lower cost while cow horn type provides locking function to prevent accidental disconnection.

Q2: Can this 1.27mm simple box header pass wave soldering?

A: Yes. The insulator is PA6T material, which is high-temperature resistant, designed for through-hole wave soldering process. It will not deform during soldering.

Q3: What does 0.8μ gold plating mean? What benefit does gold plating bring?

A: 0.8μ gold plating means 0.8 micron thickness gold coated on contact pins. Gold plating prevents metal terminal oxidation, keeps low contact resistance, improves signal stability and extends connector service life, especially suitable for products requiring long service time.

Q4: What does 48H salt spray test mean?

A: The connector housing and terminals passed 48 hours salt spray test. It can resist corrosion in humid environment, reduce rust risk for long term use in coastal or high-humidity workshop.

Q5: Can we customize pin length, pin quantity or plating thickness?

A: Yes. We support custom development for simple box header. We can adjust pin length, change pin positions, adjust gold plating thickness and customize packaging according to your drawing or sample requirements.

Q6: What receptacle can mate with this simple box header?

A: It matches 1.27mm pitch IDC female receptacle. We also supply matched IDC cable assembly if you need finished wiring harness together with this simple box header.

Q7: What is the maximum working temperature of PA6T plastic housing?

A: PA6T insulator supports continuous working temperature up to 125°C, short-time soldering high temperature resistance. It will not soften or deform during wave soldering.
