For this pre-crimped wire family with a "socket" at one or both ends:

Hirose H*B**-101**-**

hirose ordering code

with these mechanical drawings:

front

top

side

All units expressed in mm. Here is an example device. What is the socket standard? Is this quick connect? If so, what is the accepted tab size?

You would buy this part and insert the socket into a socket housing, rather than buying the wire and crimp terminal separately and crimping the terminal onto the wire yourself. This would save you the cost of buying a fairly pricey crimping tool (even the manual tool runs close to $700), and ensure you get good quality crimps with good pull strength.

The socket housing is sold under part number DF13-xS-1.25C (single-row) or DF13-xxD-1.25C (dual-row). An example of the single-row socket with wires inserted is shown in the DF13 catalog:

  • \$\begingroup\$ @Reinderien, can't you use Digi-key search engines? This is not "close", this is exactly what you are looking for. The mating part(s) are usually shown at the bottom of the item. \$\endgroup\$ Mar 4, 2019 at 1:15

    \$\begingroup\$ @Reinderien, check the catalog I linked to. It gives you the PNs for all the available sizes of wire-side housings, headers, contacts, etc. The contact pitch is 1.25 mm, so I wouldn't call that a "regular pin header". For this fine pitch, I'd definitely recommend to stick to using the correct mating part and not try to connect to a Molex/TE/other part that superficially looks similar. \$\endgroup\$

The part where this pictured thing goes to is called "housing", see, for example, Digi-Key search for "Hirose DF13"

All information is already in the link you provided. The bottom shows an example of 3-pin "socket housing". Clicking on the provided image leads you to the housing itself, and the bottom gives you a list of mating products.

If you are referring to the contact that would be a part such as DF13-2630SCF with is used on the DF13 series of jumper wires 26-30AWG

If it is the housing you are looking for here is a list of the DF13 housings it will work with. https://www.digikey.com/products/en?PPV=1811|4|241817

  • \$\begingroup\$ Yes and no. I was wondering if this is an implementation of a more generic standard, and the answer seems to be no; it looks proprietary. \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ If you want generic you are probably best to go with a quick connect or "faston" which is a TE brand \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ Probably. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find leads pre-crimped with quick-connect. \$\endgroup\$
