KK 254 Wire-to-Board Header, Single Row, Vertical, 8 Way, Tin Plating

The KK 254 Connector System is ideal for board-to-board and wire-to-board applications, offering a reliable and efficient connectivity solution. Designed to deliver up to 5A and 250V per circuit within a compact 2.54mm centreline pitch, this system ensures robust electrical performance across various demanding environments.

This vertical pin header features dual-cantilever terminals for secure contact and includes polarizing header backwalls alongside friction-lock features to prevent accidental disconnection. Constructed with a brass contact material and tin-plated contacts, it provides excellent conductivity and durability. The housing is made from unshrouded PA Polyamide Nylon, while certain versions in this range utilise high-temperature nylon with reflow matte-tin plating for enhanced manufacturing compatibility.

With compact physical dimensions of 43mm in height, 33mm in width, and 15mm in depth, and a lightweight profile of just 6 grams, this header is well-suited for space-constrained installations. The single-row configuration consists of 8 contacts with a through-hole straight termination type, facilitating straightforward PCB assembly.
