Molex Micro-Fit 3.0 Series Straight Through Hole PCB Header, 8 Contacts, 3 mm Pitch, 2 Row, Shrouded 43045-0813

Molex 43045-0813 Micro-Fit 3.0 Series Straight Through Hole PCB Header is a high-quality, dual row PCB connector designed for low to mid power applications requiring compact and reliable connections. Featuring an 8-contact arrangement and 3 mm pitch, this shrouded PCB header offers robust electrical performance with a current capacity of up to 5A.

The header's housing is made from a high-temperature thermoplastic that meets UL 94V-0 standards, capable of withstanding temperatures up to 265°C during IR reflow soldering, ensuring durability in manufacturing processes. The positive latching mechanism incorporates a locking ramp on the housing, providing secure mating to prevent accidental disconnections during operation.

This through hole mounting header is SMT compatible, allowing for versatile assembly and cost-effective production techniques. The connector is equipped with brass contacts plated in gold, enhancing conductivity and resistance to corrosion. PCB polarizing pegs integrated into the design assist with precise alignment and positioning on the PCB for ease of assembly.

Operating temperature ranges from -40°C to 125°C make this header suitable for a variety of environments. Its termination type is solder, and it features a straight orientation with male contact gender and a mating pin length of 3 mm. This product does not carry specific certifications but follows standard industry quality benchmarks.
