961108-5804-AR Datasheet/PDFRectangular connectors are versatile electrical devices that are commonly used in a wide variety of applications. The 961108-5804-AR is a type of rectangular connector that features both a male and female pin header. The product is widely used in the aerospace, automotive, medical, and military industries, as well as other fields. Knowing how the connector works and its various applications is key to finding the right product for any given project.
The 961108-5804-AR connector’s male pin header is designed with 0.1” square pins that can be inserted into a female header cavity. The female header contains a 0.1” square hole for the male pin to fit into. This is an example of a positive locking type of connector and is often used in applications that need a reliable electrical connection.
The pins on the male header are held in place with a metal retainer. The retainer is held in place with a locking nut. To ensure a secure electrical connection, the locking nut should be lightly tightened. When the locking nut is removed, the male pin header can be easily disconnected from the female header cavity.
The 961108-5804-AR connector is typically used in high-current applications. Its robust design is resistant to shock, vibration, and temperature extremes, making it ideal for aerospace and military applications. The connector is available in a few different pin configurations and can also be used as a pigtail for connecting to a printed circuit board.
The connector is also available in a number of different sizes and styles to fit the needs of any project. For example, the connector is available as a header with either a single or double row of female contacts. Additionally, different pin configurations, including straight, right-angle, and side-entry, are available.
The 961108-5804-AR also features an integrated strain relief that provides extra protection for the connections. The strain relief ensures a secure fit and helps prevent corrosion. The connector also features a dust cover option for added protection.
In summary, the 961108-5804-AR is a strong and reliable rectangular connector with a male and female pin header. It is designed for high-current applications and is available in a variety of sizes and styles. The connector is ideal for use in harsh environments, such as the aerospace and military industries, and features an integrated strain relief for added protection.
