The Molex MicroClasp Series Straight Surface PCB Header, model 55917-1010, is a high-quality connector specifically engineered for compact wire-to-board applications on printed circuit boards. With its 2 mm pitch and double row format, it offers both space efficiency and reliable signal transmission for demanding electronic environments.
This header is equipped with 10 male contacts arranged in two rows, ensuring multi-line connectivity. It utilizes a shrouded housing, providing enhanced protection against misalignment and external mechanical impacts during mating and operation. The inner positive lock mechanism secures retention, delivering an audible click and reducing accidental disconnects.
With a rated current capacity of up to 3 A and a voltage rating of 250 V, this PCB header is suitable for both power and signal transmission across various industrial, commercial, and laboratory applications. The terminal system features a low insertion force, two-point contact design, and high-current capability, supporting robust and frequent connection cycles without degrading performance.
The polyester housing and brass contacts, finished with tin plating, enhance mechanical longevity and electrical reliability. Its surface mount configuration and solder termination enable direct, efficient installation onto PCB boards. In addition, the header operates across a wide temperature range from -40°C to 105°C, making it adaptable to challenging operating conditions such as process control, test instrumentation, automation panels, and electronics manufacturing environments.
Key features include PCB space savings, latch protection, secure mating, and terminal protection. The MicroClasp series is recognized for reducing PCB footprint while ensuring easy mating and unmating, minimizing maintenance and downtime. Applications span industrial control systems, signal routing, power management, commercial electronics, and laboratory PCB assemblies.
