Molex PicoBlade Series Straight Surface PCB Header 2 Contacts 1.25 mm Pitch 1 Row Shrouded 53398-0271

Molex 53398-0271 PicoBlade Series Straight Surface PCB Header is a high-quality wire-to-board connector featuring 2 contacts in a single row with a 1.25 mm pitch and shrouded design. The shrouded housing made of durable nylon protects contacts from physical damage and electrical interference, ensuring reliable signal transmission in demanding industrial environments.

The contacts are constructed from phosphor bronze for excellent electrical conductivity, plated with tin for added corrosion resistance. This header supports a current rating of 1 A and operates efficiently within a temperature range of -40°C to 105°C. Surface mount design with solder termination ensures secure attachment and vibration resistance.

The friction lock mechanism engages with mating connectors to prevent accidental disconnection due to mishandling or vibration. Solder tabs act as strain relief to maintain robust PCB retention and reduce the risk of solder joint damage.

This PCB header is ideal for applications including electric test equipment, security systems, smart meters, and combination switches requiring compact and reliable wire-to-board connection solutions.

The Molex PicoBlade family provides compact 1.25 mm pitch connectors that offer up to 45% PCB space savings compared to traditional 2.00 mm pitch systems without sacrificing current capacity. This makes them suitable for industrial, manufacturing, and electronic assembly use cases.

The compact 1.25 mm pitch design minimizes PCB space usage. Shrouded housing protects contacts from damage and reduces electrical interference. Phosphor bronze contacts with tin plating ensure high conductivity and corrosion resistance.

Wide operating temperature range from -40°C to 105°C for industrial applications. Friction lock mechanism provides secure mating and prevents accidental disconnection. Solder tab termination offers strain relief and solid PCB retention.
