What are the key features of TST-136-03-T-D?
- 72-position dual-row 0.100" pitch shrouded header in a 3.9" body, providing polarized high-density board interconnects for 36-per-row signal or power routing
- Phosphor bronze square-pin contacts with matte tin over 50 micro-inch nickel finish offering excellent spring-force retention and corrosion resistance in standard commercial environments
- Shrouded housing with 0.365" depth mechanically guides and protects mating cable connectors, reducing mis-insertion risk in large-format IDC cable assemblies
What is TST-136-03-T-D used for?
The TST-136-03-T-D is suited for backplane, motherboard, and industrial automation applications that require 72 signal or power circuits on a single 0.100" pitch dual-row header. Its 3.9" body length accommodates high-channel-count board-to-cable routing in PLC systems, test equipment, and data acquisition front ends. The polarized shrouded design simplifies cable harness assembly and field maintenance in rack-mounted industrial enclosures.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many circuits does the TST-136-03-T-D provide, and how is the contact arranged?
The TST-136-03-T-D provides 72 circuits in a dual-row layout with 36 pins per row on a 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch, resulting in a body length of 3.9". Contacts are phosphor bronze square pins with matte tin over 50 micro-inch nickel finish, capable of handling signal and low-current power routing typical of 250 mA to 1 A per pin in standard commercial temperature environments.
For which industrial or automation systems is the TST-136-03-T-D most appropriate?
This connector is most appropriate for PLC backplane systems, motion-controller boards, and data acquisition panels that must route 72 discrete signals or mixed signal-and-power circuits through a single large-format cable assembly. The 3.9" shrouded dual-row header keeps all 72 circuits organized and polarized, preventing mis-wiring during field installation in environments where ribbon or discrete-wire 72-pin IDC harnesses are used.
What cable assembly types mate with the TST-136-03-T-D, and how easy is field replacement?
The TST-136-03-T-D mates with standard 2x36 (72-pin) IDC ribbon cable assemblies on a 0.100" grid, terminated to 28 AWG or 26 AWG flat cable. These assemblies are widely available from multiple distributors and require no special tools for replacement in the field, making the connector a practical choice for maintenance-intensive industrial installations where cable swap-out must be completed quickly without board removal.
