What are the key features of TST-106-02-H-D?

  • 12-position dual-row shrouded configuration with 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch provides keyed, polarized mating to prevent mis-insertion
  • Gold (30 µin) over nickel contact finish delivers low contact resistance and extended mating cycle durability
  • Male square pin contacts compatible with a wide range of SAMTEC socket housings and crimp terminals
  • Shrouded body design (0.9 inch body length) offers mechanical protection and strain relief for the mating connector

What is TST-106-02-H-D used for?

The TST-106-02-H-D is commonly used in industrial control systems, robotics wiring harnesses, and embedded computing enclosures where secure, polarized 12-pin board-to-wire connections at 0.100" pitch are needed. Its shrouded male header design prevents incorrect mating in field-service environments and suits applications in test fixtures, power modules, and sensor interface boards.

Frequently Asked Questions

What contact finish does the TST-106-02-H-D use, and why does it matter for connector longevity?

The TST-106-02-H-D uses gold (30 microinch) over nickel contact finish, which provides low contact resistance typically below 20 milliohms and supports hundreds of mating cycles without significant degradation, making it well suited for applications requiring repeated connector engagement such as test fixtures and field-replaceable modules.

Which wire-to-board and board-to-board configurations can be implemented with the TST-106-02-H-D 12-position shrouded header?

The TST-106-02-H-D supports wire-to-board connections via crimp socket housings and board-to-board stacking via compatible receptacle headers at 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch, enabling 12-position dual-row signal routing in industrial motor drives, embedded controller backplanes, and modular sensor networks that require polarized, secure interconnects.

How does the shrouded design of the TST-106-02-H-D protect against misalignment in assembly and field maintenance?

The TST-106-02-H-D shroud surrounds all 12 male pins within a 0.9 inch body, physically preventing off-axis mating and providing a polarization key so technicians cannot insert the connector in the wrong orientation, reducing risk of bent pins or circuit damage during assembly or field servicing of equipment with limited visual access.
