Does JST offer a wire-to-wire (in-line) mate to the PHD series?

At this time, JST does not offer a wire-to-wire mate for the PHD series. It is deigned for wire-to-board applications only.

Difference in contact part numbers

What is the difference between SPH-002T-P0.5S and SPH-002T-P0.5L?

The difference is the insertion force. SPH-002T-P0.5S is the standard contact; SPH-002T-P0.5L is a low insertion force type contact.

These contacts do not share the same tooling.

Please contact us here if you have any questions.

Can JST through-hole headers be subjected to reflow oven conditions?

The majority of JST through-hole type header wafer materials cannot withstand the temperatures required for reflow soldering (pin-n-paste). The through-hole headers are designed for wave or dip soldering methods.

Please contact us here if more information is required.

Header part number difference

What is the difference between B( )B-PHDSS and B( )B-PHDSS-B? As well as the side-entry version, S( )B-PHDSS and S( )B-PHDSS-B?

*: Replace ( ) with the applicable number of circuits.

The difference is the wafer material.

The suffixed "-B" on both the top and side-entry headers indicates the material is 66 Nylon.

Those without the "-B" suffix are glass-filled Nylon.

Difference in contact part numbers

What is the difference between SHF-001T-0.8BS and SHF-001T-0.8SS?

The difference is the base material. The contact suffixed with "BS" is the standard Phosphor Bronze material. The "SS" indicates Brass material.

Difference in contact part numbers

What is the difference between SHF-001T-0.8BS and SHF-001T-0.8SS?

The difference is the base material. The contact suffixed with "BS" is the standard Phosphor Bronze material. The "SS" indicates Brass material.

What does the "P" indicate in part number SFO-41T-P187N-8?

The "P" indicates the base material. With the "P" the material is Phosphor Bronze. Without the "P" the material is Brass.

3D model update

Limited 3D models are available for download through our web site for some headers for PCB layout purposes. You are required to, at a minimum, provide your name and your company name and agree to our license terms. The file types offered are Iges, Step and Acrobat 3D.

If available, the models can be found listed by series from the following link: Alphabetical Search by Series 

 
If the models are not listed, please contact your local sales rep and JST Regional Manager at the following link: JST Reps and Distributors

What is the difference between SHR-( )V-S and SHR-( )V-S-B?

In the subject part numbers, replace the ( ) with the applicable number of circuits.

The difference is protrusions on the sides of the housings to make handling them easier. The SHR-( )V-S is without the protrusions and SHR-( )V-S-B is with the protrusions. Please see the image below for more details.

What is the difference between SXH-001T-0.6 and SXH-001T-P0.6?

The difference is the base material.

SXH-001T-0.6 is made of Brass

SXH-001T-P0.6 is made of Phosphor Bronze (standard)

Phosphor Bronze contact retain their shape better than Brass contacts.

WC-240

Will the WC-240 hand tool work with SPHD-002T-P0.5 as well as SPH-002T-P0.5S?

No. The subject hand tool will not work with SPHD-002T-P0.5.

What is the difference between S( )B-XH-A and S( )B-XH-A-1?

In the part number, replace ( ) with the applicable number of circuits / positions.

The difference is the solder tail extension from the back edge of the header wall. Please refer to following diagram from the web site data sheet.
