Overview

The 961204-6404-AR is a 4-position, dual-row unshrouded male header from 3M's 961 series. It features a standard 0.100 inch (2.54mm) pitch and straight through-hole mounting, making it a staple component for board-to-board interconnects and jumper interfaces.

Why Choose This Part

This header is constructed with high-temperature thermoplastic, allowing it to withstand standard soldering processes and operate up to 105 degrees Celsius. The flash gold plating on the copper alloy contacts provides reliable electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance at a cost-effective price point.

Applications

Board-to-Board Interconnects
Connecting stacked PCBs in industrial or consumer electronics where a 2.54mm pitch is required.
Configuration Jumpers
Providing a 2x2 pin field for setting hardware options via standard shorting blocks.
Prototyping Shield Headers
Used as an interface point for custom daughter cards or expansion modules.
