CUSTOM ASSEMBLY
Custom XH-style wire harnesses for board-to-wire connections
- Use
- Connecting a PCB header to product wiring.
- Construction
- A specified board-side housing with leads and defined opposite ends.
- Selection focus
- XH-style is a reference; confirm the exact mating part and dimensions.
PRODUCT CONFIGURATION
Interfaces, construction and specifications
Match the assembly type first, then confirm project values. These configuration details guide selection; the approved drawing defines final materials, dimensions and ratings.
- Interfaces & terminations
- XH-style board-to-wire interface; exact housing, terminal and mating header follow the part numbers.
- Wiring & dimensions
- Pinout, occupied positions, wire colours and finished lead lengths.
- Assembly construction
- Crimped leads with stripped, tinned or terminated opposite ends, as specified.
- Conductor & materials
- Specify conductor size in AWG or mm², conductor construction, insulation and jacket part numbers. Selection must match the terminals; see the material guide below.
- Temperature & validation
- State operating temperature and fixed or moving installation. Assembly ratings, test conditions and records depend on the selected materials and construction.
Project scope and product notes
Short leads between a circuit board and the product wiring. XH-style interfaces can be reviewed when specified; the housing, contacts, position count and pitch follow the confirmed project documents. Start with a drawing, sample photos or an existing assembly brief to identify the interface, wiring and open questions before the quotation scope is confirmed.
The image illustrates an assembly type. Confirm the interface, positions, length and inspection for the project; undecided RFQ details can remain open.
Additional product technical notes
- Interface review
- XH-style interfaces can be reviewed when specified; the housing, contacts, position count and pitch follow the confirmed project documents.
- Customization
- Confirm pinout, wire gauge, colors, length, exit direction and end preparation for the project.
- Inspection scope
- Define sample and production requirements for continuity, polarity, contact retention and visual inspection.
Which board-to-wire lead matches your project?
| Interface reference | Application focus | Check first |
|---|---|---|
| XH-style leads | PCB header to product wiring | Mating header and opposite wire ends |
| PH-style leads | Internal routing around a board and enclosure | Header clearance, wire bends and assembly access |
| GH-style leads | Signal wiring in limited installation space | Occupied cavities, wire exit and strain relief |
Applications can overlap. A series name does not replace a part number: match the housing, contacts and board header, then verify pitch, position count and installation dimensions.

FAQ
What should I specify at the board end?
Identify the mating PCB header, housing and contacts, occupied positions and pin numbering. An XH-style description is a starting reference; exact part numbers and fit need confirmation.
Can the other ends be prepared for my assembly process?
State whether the opposite ends need stripping, tinning or another termination, with finished length and preparation dimensions. The selected process and acceptance criteria are confirmed from your drawing.
