3M, 3000, 50 Way, 2 Row, Straight PCB Header

D3000 series PCB through hole mounting wire to board headers with a double row of square pins in a 2.54 x 2.54 mm pitch. These D3000 series headers are fully shrouded to protect the contacts from damage and have mounting holes for a secure the connection to the PCB. The ejection latches of these D3000 series PCB headers provide a secure connection to the mating connector and allow easy removal when needed. The design of the ejection latches features roll-pins for increased retention in high vibration applications and to prevent breakage during ejection. Ejection latches are either supplied with the header or require purchasing separately. These D3000 series shrouded PCB headers incorporate a cut-out in the housing to accommodate mating connectors with centre bump polarisation. Extra polarisation slots are also provided to enable quick connection and to minimise misalignment. Military polarisation can also be achieved by using a polarisation key (3M part number N3518). Versions of these headers are available with housings made from high temperature PCT thermoplastic making them suitable for lead-free solder processing up to 260°C (JEDEC J-STD-020C). Available as right angle or vertical mounting and with various contact numbers these D3000 series headers offer a versatile solution for your wire to board requirements.

IDC connectors are suitable for use in applications in a wide range of markets. These markets include industrial, instrumentation, medical markets, consumer, communications and data.

3M are a reliable name in computing and electronic connection. Combined with RS Components excellent customer service, 3M provides a range of specialist connectivity solutions for a variety of industries and applications.

Use this PCB (printed circuit board) header from 3M to join electrical connections to a PCB using a single block. The through-hole header is designed for board-to-board and wire-to-board connections and uses soldered terminations to attach the copper-alloy pins. It's fully shrouded to protect the gold-plated contacts from damage. The built-in mounting holes accept a standard screw for a secure connection to the PCB or mating connector, while snap-in roll-pin latches ensure a robust connection.

Gold-plated contacts need less force than other contacts, so they can be connected and disconnected more times before they fail. They're also much better for any type of analogue signals because of lower line noise, as well as being much more resistant to corrosion.
