76314-125

Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets

The 76314-125 is a Rectangular Connector that provides a reliable connection between devices and comes in two types, a header (plug) and a receptacle (socket). The pin type is normally 1.27 mm (50 mil) standard spacing with five metal gripping teeth. The contact material is phosphor bronze with a 30 μm gold-plated finish, which provides good electrical and mechanical performance and long-term reliability.

The receptacle-type 76314-125 has 19 open positions on the bottom side of its enclosure for wire-to-board connections. It is commonly mounted directly to a printed circuit board. It features a guide/lock system which locks the receptacle in position. Also, the gaskets, which are provided, give the device a higher degree of sealing.

The header-type 76314-125 has a 19-way single row PCB layout style and a current rating of 8.0A per contact. It is designed for easy board insertion and withdrawal with minimal board modification or major stress on the contact tips. Key locking pins provide secure connections with a single mating cycle, and a black and white coding system, for polarization and orientation, further prevents misconnections.

74314-125\'s working principle is simple: a metal prototype is inserted into the plug and a corresponding row of contacts is connected to the socket. When the two parts are connected, a metal spring slides over the contacts, providing firm electrical and mechanical connections. The contact is held in place by spring-loaded prongs that snap into place when pushed into the socket. The contacts are held in place by pins that fit into the slots when the two parts are connected.

In recent years, 76314-125 has become more widely used in industrial and commercial settings due to its unique combination of reliable performance, sturdy construction, and competitive pricing. It is often used in applications where reliable electrical and mechanical connection is needed, such as data transmission, electronic devices, and lab equipment. 76314-125\'s impact-resistant construction and easy installation make it suitable for industrial settings where protection from dust, debris, and shock are needed.
