Molex MicroClasp Series Right Angle Through Hole PCB Header, 5 Contacts, 2 mm Pitch, 1 Row, Shrouded 55935-0510

Molex MicroClasp Series model 55935-0510 is a right angle through hole PCB header designed for secure and compact wire-to-board connections. This header features a shrouded single row design with 5 contacts arranged in a 2 mm pitch, providing a space-saving solution for electronic assemblies where high retention and reliability are required. The right angle orientation allows for easy mating/unmating and efficient board design.

The header is constructed with durable polyester housing and utilizes tin-plated contacts for optimal conductivity and corrosion resistance. Rated up to 3A current, it is ideally suited for wire-to-board systems in industrial, instrumentation, and electronic equipment.

MicroClasp Series headers integrate an inner positive lock mechanism which ensures latch protection, secure retention, and an audible mating click, reducing risk of accidental disconnect. The terminal design offers low insertion and withdrawal forces, making it suitable for automated or manual assembly processes. Its shrouded design further protects terminals and enhances reliability in demanding environments.

With a solder termination type, male contact gender, and tail pin length of 3.2 mm, the header is compatible with standard PCB processes and provides robust fixture. It is capable of operating in temperatures from -40°C to 105°C, supporting versatile applications in industrial, laboratory, and commercial electronic assemblies.

Applications include signal and power connections in control systems, instrumentation interfaces, automation equipment, and development boards. The compact form factor and high retention features make it suitable for densely populated boards and professional electronics manufacturing.
