Rectangular Connectors – Headers, Male Pins, are electrical components that serve to securely join wires and other interfaces together in a variety of applications. The 22-28-4257 Connector is a bifurcated style of header, characterized by two pins in the same slot. This style of connector is commonly used in the automotive, industrial, medical, computing and other high-reliability industries.The primary purpose of the 22-28-4257 Bifurcated Header is to provide a reliable and secure electrical connection between two components. Its working principle is based on its physical design. The two pins in the same slot feature a male-to-female configuration, which prevents pins from accidentally connecting and allows the connector to be securely fastened. This design also allows for the pins to extrude outwards, which reduces the likelihood of shorts or breaks due to double-stacking of the contacts. Additionally, the contact pins are slightly beveled at the base, which allows for easier insertion into receptacles or other mating devices.In terms of physical construction, the 22-28-4257 Connector is constructed of a combination of plastic and metals. The terminals and contacts are made from phosphor bronze plated with tin to provide increased durability and electrical connectivity. The plastic body offers stability and, when combined with the added insulation of the rubber boot, it provides a strong level of protection against dust and other environmental contaminants.The 22-28-4257 Bifurcated Header connector is widely utilized in automotive, industrial, medical, computing, and other high-reliability applications. It is most commonly used for connecting power and radio frequency (RF) lines in a wide range of electronics. In the automotive industry, these connectors are used to connect various wiring harnesses for a variety of components, such as headlamps, fans, and even some of the internal car electronic systems. In the medical field, they are commonly used in a number of different medical devices such as monitors, diagnostic systems, medical automation systems, and even implants. In the computing sector, these connectors are used to route data, power, and signal in a wide array of applications, from gaming to robotics to servers.Overall, the 22-28-4257 Bifurcated Header Connectors are highly reliable and durable electrical devices that are most often used in a wide variety of high-reliability applications, from automotive to medical to computing. The male-to-female configuration of the pins, combined with the beveled design, makes for a secure and durable electrical connection. The metal-plastic construction of the connector is also highly durable and provides protection against dust and other environmental contaminants.
