TSW-129-26-L-S

Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins:

TSW-129-26-L-S is a rectangular connector that primarily comprises a header and male pins, amongst other components. As a result, its application fields and working principle must be considered in relation to those respective components.

Header

The header, a central component of the connector, serves as the attachment point of the cables that constitute its increased durability. Manufacturers typically use thermoplastic material to construct headers, as it offers mechanical support and heat insulation. In operation, the header hosts and protects the pins of the connector, enabling connections and providing structural durability. Due to the thermoplastic construction and its ability to resist thermal shock, the header can function in extreme temperatures, ranging from -55°C to +125°C.

Male Pins

Connectors require conducting pins that provide a connection with the electrical harness. Male pins are the most common form of conducting pin used in TSW-129-26-L-S connectors. They are typically composed of brass and gold plated, allowing for a low electrical contact resistance. In operation, these pins are inserted into the header, providing a connection between the harness and the connector. The pins are designed to maximize conductivity; in some cases, resulting in increased signal integrity.

Application Field and Working Principle

The TSW-129-26-L-S rectangular connector allows for versatile applications. It is typically used in electronic products and electrical devices such as those in the automotive, industrial, and medical industries. The working principle of this connector is simple, as the pins are inserted into the header and provide a conductive connection when in contact with the harness, while the thermoplastic insulation and metallic pins provide resistance to mechanical vibration, temperatures, and shock.

The TSW-129-26-L-S rectangular connector combines the benefits of both header and male pins. The header is typically made of thermoplastic material, allowing it to resist mechanical vibration and shock, while the male pins provide a low electrical contact resistance and allows for a high signal integrity. The use of this connector is flexible, and thus, it is used in a variety of products and industries.
