They're not meant for heavy-duty industiral vibration environments where constant loosening would happen, but for fixed PCB power connections they actually hold up fine — we've tested these with the M3 steel zinc plated screws torqued to spec and they maintain contact through thermal cycling between -30°C and +120°C pretty consistently.
Every batch comes with a COA covering dielectric strength and contact resistance, and we run HPLC on PBT housing material to confirm UL94V-0 rating before injection molding even starts, so you're not gambling on fire safety with these.
16A rated at 300V is what they advertise, but what it does is handle sustained loads at about 12A continuously without significant temperature rise at the solder joints — the brass tin plated pin header dissipates heat better than nickel plated alternatives we've seen.
2-pin and 3-pole versions are both in stock typically, CE stamped on the body, but lead time for the 5.0mm pitch is usually 10-14 working days while the 5.08mm runs closer to 20 days or so depending on mold availability.
Basically we wound up ordering these because teh retest policy is straightforward — if a batch fails the 250°C soldering test for 5 seconds on even one unit, they replace the whole lot without us having to argue about it, which saves hassle.
The 22-14AWG wire range is tight but usable, and for anyone setting up PCB power distribution in control panels or lighting ballasts, the packging comes in reels of 100 pieces (2-pin strips) or 50 pieces (3-pole) — just confirm your board spacing before you order.
Yes, both 2P and 3P configurations are available. Just specify the number of poles when you place your order.
MOQ is typically 1000 pieces for standard 2P models, but we can adjust for smaller trial orders. Contact us to discuss your needs.
Absolutely, we include the CE certification documents with each order. You'll get a copy for your records and compliance checks.
The wire range is 22-14AWG, so 22AWG fits physically, but for a full 16A load we recommend 14AWG to avoid overheating. The rating assumes proper wire sizing.
Keep them in a dry, cool place below 30°C, away from direct sunlight and moisture. The PBT housing is durable, but long-term humidity can affect the contacts.
