68448-242HLF Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins

68448-242HLF is a rectangular connector primarily used for headers, male pins, and other similar applications. The connector has an off-white plastic housing with 2.50 mm-wide pins rated to up to 8A at 250V AC. The connector has a standard 2.54mm pitch and is UL 94V-0 flammability rated. In addition, the connector is also EIA-561 compatible and RoHS compliant.

Features and Benefits

• Space-saver design
• Securely locks on the mating header
• Wire exit from connector bottom
• High durability
• Cost effective
• UL94-V0 flammability rating
• EIA-561 compatible
• RoHS Compliant

Application Field

The 68448-242HLF is generally used for direct connection of PCBs, enclosures, cases, power cables, and other electronic components. It is perfect for use in a variety of electronic devices, such as handheld readers, portable navigation devices, telephones, and other wired communication devices. Due to its low profile design and small size, it is also suitable for high speed prototyping, mechanical and electronic prototypes, and more.

Working Principle

The 68448-242HLF utilizes a two-piece design where the mating header slides onto the body of the male connector pins and is secured with a plastic latch. The latching mechanism is spring-loaded so that it comfortably locks onto the body of the connector, but at the same time provides enough flexibility to allow for a secure connection. The contacts have a unique design to prevent accidental disconnection and prevent fouling with other components. The male contacts are 0.10mm thick to allow for continuous, high current carrying capacity. The contacts are precision formed and gold-plated to ensure maximum electrical and mechanical performance on every connection and prevent oxidation.

The 68448-242HLF is designed with a clever and secured wiring exit that allows the wire to easily exit the connector bottom to achieve a neat appearance and reduce the risk of short circuit. The connector is further constructed from a UL 94V-0-rated material and supports up to 8A at 250V AC, providing more than enough power for a variety of applications. Additionally, the connector also includes a standard 2.54mm pitch and is EIA-561 compatible to ensure maximum compatibility with a wide range of applications.

Conclusion

The 68448-242HLF rectangular connector is a high-quality, reliable, and cost-effective solution for headers, male pins, and other similar applications. It utilizes a two-piece design with a reliable latching mechanism and gold-plated contacts for maximum electrical and mechanical performance on every connection. The connector is UL 94V-0-rated, EIA-561 compatible, and RoHS compliant, allowing for use in a wide range of applications.
