76382-402

The 76382-402 are rectangular connectors usually used in applications that call for precise connections and reliable signal protection. This type of connector is typically used in automobiles, medical equipment, consumer electronics, and military equipment. It is available in a variety of styles, sizes, and characteristics to meet a broad range of application needs.

The most common type of76382-402 connector is the header and male pin variant. This variant has a header or receptacle at one end, which has female pins embedded in it, and the mating end has male pins which connect to the female pins. The pins at both sides of the connector, the header receptacle and the pins are both arranged in a rectangular shape. The pins can be soldered to the board and then mated to the header, providing a secure connection.

The pins on the male side are flanged downward and the header receptacle on the female pins are flanged up to provide additional security. When the pins are mated to the header, it creates a tight and reliable connection that can withstand continuous vibration while providing optimal signal strength. The pins are usually made from brass and plated with tin to provide excellent corrosion resistance and ensure a secure connection.

The header in the 76382-402 connector is also designed with the intention to provide reliable connections. It is made of a thermoplastic material and features an insulating sleeve around the header and female pins to ensure correct positioning when mated to male pins. The plastic header insulates and prevents electrical arcing between pins, ensuring no signal degradation. The plastic header provides additional protection from various environmental conditions.

76382-402 connectors are rated for 1.5A and operate at a voltage of up to 400VAC. They are also available in three different pitches, 2.54mm, 3mm, and 5mm. The five pin layout is often preferred for higher power applications, while the two and three-pin layouts are more suitable for low-power applications. The pins are also available in different lengths, depending on the application and board layout.

The 76382-402 connectors are highly reliable and designed to provide superior signal protection and a secure connection. The header and pins are made of high quality materials and are designed for reliable connections even under continuous vibration and extreme environmental conditions. This type of rectangular connector is an excellent choice for many applications requiring reliable electronics connections.
