HARWIN Datamate L-Tek Series PCB Header, Straight, Through Hole, 12 Contacts, 2 mm Pitch, 2 Row, Shrouded M80-8541242

HARWIN M80-8541242 Datamate L-Tek Series Straight Through Hole PCB Header is engineered for advanced board-to-board and wire-to-board connectivity within industrial, laboratory, and commercial electronic assemblies. Incorporating 12 male contacts arranged in two rows, this header maintains a compact 2 mm pitch, making it ideal for high-density circuit designs.

This header features a robust polyphenylene sulphide (PPS) housing material, offering exceptional insulation performance and durability against mechanical stress and elevated temperatures. Capable of withstanding operating temperatures from -55°C to 125°C, the connector remains reliable throughout extended usage cycles, even in vibration-prone or shock-exposed environments.

The gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts have been specially developed to provide both high electrical conductivity and outstanding resistance to corrosion, guaranteeing low contact resistance and connection integrity over repeated mating cycles. The straight, shrouded design helps minimize misalignment risks during installation and provides additional protection to the contact system.

Mounting is straightforward with through-hole solder termination and a tail pin length of 3 mm, facilitating secure attachment within industry-standard PCBs. The reliable Datamate L-Tek connector system is suited for applications requiring safety, reliability, and performance, including industrial automation, military electronics, and commercial products where failure is not an option.

Supporting up to 3A current and 120V voltage, this header is compliant with BS9525-F0033, MIL C 55302, and CEC 75101-008 standards, marking it as suitable for both custom and off-the-shelf (COTS) assemblies.

Its polarised mouldings and high-reliability connector system deliver robust performance under demanding application conditions, such as exposure to vibration, shock, and harsh environments. Whether used in manufacturing control panels or complex laboratory instrumentation, this header stands out for its durability and ease of integration.
