3M 3000 Series Straight Through Hole PCB Header, 10 Contact(s), 2.54mm Pitch, 2 Row(s), Shrouded

The 3M D3000 series PCB through hole mounting wire to board headers feature a double row of square pins in a 2.54 x 2.54 mm pitch. These D3000 series headers are fully shrouded to protect the contacts from damage and have mounting holes for a secure the connection to the PCB.

The ejection latches of these D3000 series PCB headers provide a secure connection to the mating connector and allow easy removal when needed. The design of the ejection latches features roll-pins for increased retention in high vibration applications and to prevent breakage during ejection. Ejection latches are either supplied with the header or require purchasing separately. These D3000 series shrouded PCB headers incorporate a cut-out in the housing to accommodate mating connectors with centre bump polarisation. Extra polarisation slots are also provided to enable quick connection and to minimise misalignment. Military polarisation can also be achieved by using a polarisation key (3M part number N3518).

Versions of these headers are available with housings made from high temperature PCT thermoplastic making them suitable for lead-free solder processing up to 260°C (JEDEC J-STD-020C). Available as right angle or vertical mounting and with various contact numbers these D3000 series headers offer a versatile solution for your wire to board requirements.

• 4 wall shrouding for contact protection
• Centre bump polarisation
• Military polarisation possible using N3518 polarising key

• Part numbers prefixed with 'N' have high temperature PCT housings

• Ejector latches are available separately, see stock number 827-3562 typically

IDC connectors are suitable for use in applications in a wide range of markets. These markets include industrial, instrumentation, medical markets, consumer, communications and data.

3M are a reliable name in computing and electronic connection. Combined with RS Components excellent customer service, 3M provides a range of specialist connectivity solutions for a variety of industries and applications.

Connecting components to your PCB is a cinch with this 10-way, 2-row PCB header from 3M. The housing is fitted with roll-pins that hold wires securely in place, making this a great option for applications where jostling and vibration are common occurrences. Disconnection is just as easy, thanks to ejection latches that you can simply unclip. Through-hole mounting ensures it stays soundly connected to the board.

• Gold-plated copper contacts are highly conductive for reliable signal transmission
• 4-wall shroud makes the unit more secure and minimises the risk of bent pins
• Centre bump polarisation safeguards against damage caused by incorrect insertion

• Military sector
• Consumer electronics
• Laboratories

The housing for this PCB header is made from glass-filled polyester. This makes it a hardwearing component with a long service life, even in settings where bumps and abrasions are common.
