Applications span automotive, general purpose, industrial, medical, and telecommunications — the UL94 V-0 polyester housing and tin plating suit equipment inside enclosures where limited mating cycles are expected. Breakaway headers are shipped as long strips; the 15-position length is snapped from a longer strip during manufacturing. This allows custom circuit counts, but the break leaves a clean edge only if snapped along the designated grooves. This improves wear resistance and solderability, but tin is still a low-cycle material — expect 10–25 mating cycles before contact fretting becomes a concern. The square pins (0.045 inch typical for KK396) mate with standard KK396 crimp receptacles or IDC connectors. Confirm the mating half uses 3.96 mm pitch and accepts the 0.045 inch square pin. ## Active Production — Sourcing This BOM Line If a pin-compatible alternative is needed, look at other KK396 series breakaway headers with the same pitch, row count, and orientation — but verify the friction lock and contact finish match your application.","metaTitle":"Molex 0026486154 — KK396 15-Position Right-Angle Breakaway","metaDescription":"Molex 0026486154: KK396 series, 15-position single-row breakaway header, 3.96 mm pitch, right-angle through-hole, tin-plated contacts, friction lock, UL94 V-0.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Pin Headers, Sockets & Housings"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"Molex","Style":"Board to Board or Cable","Series":"KK396, 41672","Package":"Bulk","Features":"-","Shrouding":"Shrouded - 1 Wall","Termination":"Solder","Applications":"Automotive, General Purpose, Industrial, Medical, Telecommunications","Contact Type":"Male Pin","Contact Shape":"Square","Mounting Type":"Through Hole, Right Angle","Connector Type":"Header, Breakaway","Fastening Type":"Friction Lock","Number of Rows":"1","Pitch - Mating":"0.156\\\" (3.96mm)","Product Status":"Active","Voltage Rating":"-","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Contact Material":"Brass","Insulation Color":"Black","Insulation Height":"0.355\\\" (9.02mm)","Ingress Protection":"-","Base Product Number":"002648","Insulation Material":"Polyester","Number of Positions":"15","Row Spacing - Mating":"-","Contact Finish - Post":"Tin","Contact Length - Post":"0.207\\\" (5.26mm)","Current Rating (Amps)":"-","Operating Temperature":"-","Mated Stacking Heights":"-","Overall Contact Length":"-","Contact Finish - Mating":"Tin","Contact Length - Mating":"0.528\\\" (13.41mm)","Number of Positions Loaded":"All","Material Flammability Rating":"UL94 V-0","Contact Finish Thickness - Post":"60.0µin (1.52µm)","Contact Finish Thickness - Mating":"60.0µin (1.52µm)"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$2.5300","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/76e5a849c30109ab3a0c83a7ccfa059a.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Where can I buy Molex 0026486154 and how do I get a price?","answer":"No stock-holding claim is made — each order is sourced per the request."},{"question":"What female connector mates with Molex 0026486154?","answer":"This header mates with any KK396 series receptacle housing that accepts 3.96 mm pitch, 0.045 inch square pins, single-row, 15 positions.
