Product Features

A power socket wafer built for current, not just signal, this vertical female receptacle keeps a wire-to-board power path stable where finer-pitch parts would overheat. The 6-position housing stands the contacts upright so the matching male header seats from above, giving assemblers a clear, self-aligning insertion that reduces mis-mate and speeds hand or automated placement. Inside, the contact system is shaped to carry a continuous load without the resistive heating that erodes cheaper designs, so the link stays cool and quiet under sustained draw. Tin over phosphor bronze gives a solderable, oxidation-resistant surface that holds its joint through reflow and years of field service, while the nylon 66 body resists heat and flame so the part survives both the soldering process and the equipment's own operating heat. A wide thermal window lets the same socket serve controlled indoor gear and unconditioned field enclosures without a separate variant. For design teams, that means one dependable vertical wafer that takes real power, takes abuse, and keeps the board layout simple — which is exactly what the 6.35PH Power Socket Wafer Vertical Type is made for.

Application Scenarios

The 6.35PH Power Socket Wafer Vertical Type shows its worth wherever a board has to feed real power to something next to it. In a bench or rack power supply, the vertical socket lets the output cable drop straight down into the PCB while the rest of the layout stays open for heatsinks and control circuitry, so builders get a clean current path without reworking the whole board. On an industrial motor-drive or relay board, the same wafer carries the feed that spins a pump or closes a contactor, and its flame-safe housing and tough contacts shrug off the heat and vibration those environments generate. Lighting controls and small appliances use it where a mains-adjacent power tap must be simple, safe, and serviceable by anyone on the line. Across these settings the constant is a socket that mates from above, stays put, and keeps resistance low — turning a routine wire-to-board join into a link you do not have to think about once it is placed.

Why Choose C-350431-1—6.35PH Power Socket Wafer Vertical Type

1. Real power in a wafer footprint — the 6.35PH Power Socket Wafer Vertical Type is built to carry up to 13 A at 600 V, so it handles board-level power feeds that finer-pitch parts cannot.

2. Isolation you can trust — a 5000 V AC withstanding rating and 1000 MΩ minimum insulation give a wide safety margin for mains-adjacent and industrial use.

3. Contacts that last — phosphor bronze with tin plating resists oxidation and keeps contact resistance low, holding a stable joint through soldering and service.

4. Built for heat and flame — nylon 66 UL94V-0 housing survives lead-free reflow and meets flame-safety expectations across applications.

5. Wide operating window — a -55 °C to 105 °C range covers controlled indoor equipment and harsher unconditioned enclosures with one part.

FAQs

Q: What cable or mating header does the 6.35PH Power Socket Wafer Vertical Type accept?

A: It is a 6-position, 6.35 mm pitch vertical female socket wafer, so it mates with the matching 6.35 mm pitch, 6-position vertical male header or plug. Confirm the header style against your board layout before ordering, since the socket and header are paired by pitch and position count rather than by brand.

Q: How do I place and solder this 6.35 mm power wafer on a PCB?

A: The female socket mounts vertically with its contacts entering the board from above, so align it to the PCB footprint and run it through standard wave or reflow soldering. The white nylon 66 housing and tin-plated phosphor bronze contacts are chosen to survive lead-free profiles, but follow your normal thermal process and verify the joint after the first build.

Q: Is this vertical power socket suitable for industrial or outdoor-adjacent equipment?

A: Yes for industrial use. With a -55 °C to 105 °C operating range, UL94V-0 flame-rated nylon 66 housing, and 5000 V AC withstanding isolation, it suits motor drives, power supplies, and control boards. For wet, dusty, or washdown environments, pair it with appropriate enclosure sealing, since the connector itself is an open board-level part.

Q: What do the 13 A and 600 V ratings mean for my design?

A: Those are the continuous rated current and voltage for the 6.35PH socket — it is sized to deliver up to 13 A per circuit at 600 V AC/DC without exceeding its thermal and isolation limits. Size your copper traces with a safety margin for sustained loads, and the socket will carry the power your board needs.
