It uses a 2.00 mm pitch — the dimension that decides whether it mates with your existing 2.00 mm pin header footprint. The single-row layout keeps the harness narrow, and the free-hanging (in-line) mount means it terminates at the end of a wire bundle, not on a board. Termination is IDC — insulation displacement — so you push the wire into the slot rather than crimp a separate contact. That speeds up assembly for 20-26 AWG discrete wire, but the trade-off is limited rework: once the wire is seated, pulling it damages the slot. The socket accepts a range of wire gauges within that span, which gives some flexibility on the harness side. Contact finish is gold at 8.00 µinch thickness. That is a signal-grade plating — adequate for moderate mating cycles in a clean, indoor environment. It is not specced for high-vibration or corrosive duty, but for a typical wire-to-board interconnect inside an enclosure it holds up fine. The housing is black, and the part ships in a tube. Base product number is 1746741. ## Mating and Compatibility — 2.00 mm Header Fit This socket mates with a standard 2.00 mm pitch male pin header — the kind used widely in TE and other connector families at that pitch. The 8 positions line up one-to-one with an 8-pin header; there is no depopulation or spare circuit to manage. The single-row arrangement means the header must also be single-row. No fastening type is listed on this socket — it relies on the friction fit of the IDC contacts against the header pins. If your application sees vibration, consider a header with a locking ramp or a secondary retention feature. The RITS series does not include an integral latch on this variant.","metaTitle":"TE RITS 1-1746741-8 Socket, 8P IDC, 2.00mm Pitch","metaDescription":"TE Connectivity RITS 1-1746741-8 female socket, 8 positions, 2.00mm pitch, IDC termination for 20-26 AWG discrete wire.
