3-87579-5 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The TE Connectivity 3-87579-5 is a 6-position, 2-row rectangular header with male pins. It is designed for through-hole, right-angle mounting on a printed circuit board. The connector features a 4-wall shrouded housing that provides mechanical protection and alignment during mating. The pitch is 2.54mm (0.100 inches) and row spacing is also 2.54mm, making it compatible with standard 0.100-inch grid patterns.

The header is rated for 3A continuous current per pin and operates over a temperature range of -65°C to 105°C. The contact material is phosphor bronze with a tin-lead finish (100.0µin / 2.54µm thickness). The insulation is made of thermoplastic with a UL94 V-0 flammability rating. The connector is suitable for board-to-board or cable-to-board applications where a secure, shrouded connection is required.

All 6 positions are loaded, providing full pin count. The right-angle orientation allows for low-profile connections parallel to the board. The detent lock fastening type ensures retention during vibration.
