Aries specializes in custom design and production. In addition to the standard products shown on this page, special materials, platings, sizes, and configurations can be furnished, depending on quantities. Aries reserves the right to change product specifications without notice.
The Aries Series 0600 strip‑line headers are available with fork or post style coined contacts. They feature a "break" option that lets the header be cut to the required number of positions and can be stacked side‑to‑side or end‑to‑end.
Specifications include a black UL 94‑V0 glass‑filled nylon body, brass contacts, various plating options (tin, gold, tin/lead), a 2 A contact current rating, and operating temperature limits of 221 °F (105 °C) for tin‑plated contacts and 257 °F (125 °C) for gold‑plated contacts. Mounting details such as PCB hole size and lead diameter are also provided.
