Available in top-entry (vertical) and side-entry (right angle) mounting configurations, the RoHS compliant SMT headers are molded Polyamide rated UL94V-0 and feature insertion guides for easy and secure insertion of the mating ZPD housing. The copper alloy posts are reflow treated tin-plating over copper-underplating and are designed to prevent accidental removal of the pins that might result from distorted mating. Copper alloy, copper-underplated tin-plated reinforcement tabs offer strength and stability to the mounted headers. The SMT headers are packaged in embossed tape with removable suction caps (top-entry) designed for automated placement equipment.
