SCONDAR SCT1016WRS – SMD Right-Angle Header for 1.0mm Secure Lock Connector, Low Insertion Force
Article:
The SCONDAR SCT1016WRS is a surface-mount (SMD) right-angle header designed for 1.0mm pitch secure lock type wire-to-board connectors. It is mechanically and electrically compatible with the JST NSH series SMD right-angle header (SMxxB-NSHSS-TB) , providing a reliable, independent second-source solution for applications requiring low-profile, horizontal wire entry with secure locking.
Low Insertion Force with Proven Contact Interface
The SCT1016WRS incorporates a contact interface geometry that delivers low insertion force, enabling smoother mating operations and reducing mechanical stress on both the header and the mating housing during repeated use. The fundamental contact principle is equivalent to the performance-proven SHL-type connector platform, ensuring stable contact resistance and long-term reliability.
Electrical & Environmental Specifications
Current Rating:Â 1A AC/DC
Voltage Rating:Â 50V AC/DC
Insulation Resistance: 100MΩ min.
Withstanding Voltage:Â 500V AC for 1 minute
Contact Resistance: 30mΩ max.
Operating Temperature: -25°C to +85°C
Housing Material
LCP offers outstanding heat resistance, dimensional stability, and low moisture absorption, making it exceptionally well-suited for reflow soldering processes used in high-volume SMT assembly.
Design Features
Right-Angle SMD Mounting – Enables low-profile, horizontal wire exit, ideal for space-constrained applications
1.0mm Pitch – Supports high-density board-to-wire connections
Secure Lock Structure – Provides audible and tactile mating feedback with compatible crimp housings
Low Insertion Force – Reduces mating effort and minimizes wear on connector components
Pick-and-Place Compatible – Optimized for automated assembly and reflow soldering
Compatibility Note
The SCT1016WRS is a functional equivalent to the JST SMxxB-NSHSS-TB series. It accepts the same SCONDAR SCT1016H housing (compatible with NSHR-xxV-S) and SCT1016T terminal (compatible with SSHL-003T-P0.2). Users can integrate the SCT1016WRS into existing NSH-compatible PCB layouts as a drop-in replacement without board redesign.
No IP Infringement
SCONDAR has developed the SCT1016WRS through independent tooling, contact geometry, and material selection. While achieving equivalent electrical and mechanical performance to the SHL/NSH right-angle header platform, the SCT1016WRS does not copy any protected designs, patented contact structures, or proprietary features. It is offered as a lawful alternative for customers seeking supply chain diversification or a second source.
Typical Applications
Portable and handheld electronics
Battery-powered devices with horizontal cable routing
LED lighting modules and strips
Industrial control interfaces
Medical diagnostic equipment
Consumer appliances with low-profile requirements
Recommendation
For optimal electrical and mechanical performance, SCONDAR recommends using the SCT1016WRS with the SCT1016H housing and SCT1016T terminal. Pre-production validation of solder joint integrity, retention force, and contact resistance is advised for critical applications.
