Description

Single row headers for pluggable PCB connections

The 15 family provides through-hole PCB headers with one straight row of contacts. Choose the exact pitch, pole count, mating direction and end fixing before laying out the board. V versions mate vertically, R versions have right-angle contacts, and L versions provide an inclined mating face. C versions have plain ends, M versions have threaded end inserts, and G versions have locking lugs. The 15RC-LD/3.5 is a separate covered configuration.

All listed models support 2–24 poles. Match the mating connector by contact geometry, keying and model drawing; similar appearance or pitch alone does not establish interchangeability.

Ordering and model identification

Specify the full model, pitch, pole count and color. N denotes the number of poles in the dimension formulas. The prefix identifies the pitch family: TB00 for 2.5mm, TB01 for 3.5mm, TB13 for 3.81mm and TB27 for 5.08mm. Use only the combinations listed above.

Generic screw fieldsThe shared legend identifies screw head 0 = slot and 1 = cross, and clamping direction 0 = screw down and 1 = screw up; these do not add wire-clamping screws to a PCB header.

2.5mm header dimensions

Both 2.5mm models have an overall length of [2.5N+1.9]mm and a contact span of 2.5(N−1)mm. Their body section is 10.1mm × 8.1mm, with a 7.9mm internal section reference, 0.8mm square pins and a 2.2mm end-to-contact reference. The vertical version has a 3.5±0.3mm solder-pin projection and 4.2mm PCB edge reference; the right-angle version has a 3.8±0.3mm projection, 1.2mm PCB edge reference and Ø1.4mm holes. Use the respective drawing for orientation.
