Robust System Solution for 2 mm
Wire-to-Board Applications
3M™ Latch/Eject Header, 2 mm, Vertical,
Surfacemount
3M now offers a 2 mm pitch latch/eject header for mating with other IDC
connectors. The latch/ejectors maintain a secure connection to the cable assembly
during operation, but also allow for easy removal of the harness when needed. To
increase the reliability of the system, 3M uses roll pins to attach the latches instead
of a snap-in system. This feature helps increase the retention of the latches to the
body in high vibration applications and during shipping through the supply chain to

Through-Hole
your customer. The latch and body design of this header reduces the probability of
the latches breaking when ejecting the mating assembly.
