The orthogonal COMBICON MSTBO 2,5/... headers with a 5.0 pitch are now available for use in the Through Hole Reflow process. Components can be mounted automatically on the PCB without any problems. The headers are made of highly temperature-resistant polyamide and are suitable for use in lead-free solder processes. There is a 4-pos. version available and versions with two and three positions will follow shortly. The integrated suction area allows cost and timeeffective processing, since it is no longer necessary to remove a suction pad after processing. The headers are supplied in tapes, so that common feeder systems can be used. They can also be supplied in bulk.
