The green colour is standard for the Buchanan terminal block family, helping visual identification on the board or in the cabinet. At 11 A per circuit, this header carries the same current rating as the 12-position sibling 1-284514-2 and the 10-position 1-284517-0 (which uses a 0.150\" pitch). Compared to the right-angle variant 1-284539-2 (same pitch, same 12 positions, same current), this vertical orientation lets the mating plug enter perpendicular to the PCB, which can simplify wire routing in a cabinet where the header sits on a backplane or I/O board. ## Active production — no obsolescence risk RoHS3 compliant (ROHS3 Compliant).","metaTitle":"1-284516-2 TE Buchanan Header, 12 Pos, 3.50 mm, Vertical","metaDescription":"1-284516-2 TE Connectivity AMP Connectors Buchanan header, 12 positions, 0.138\" (3.50 mm) pitch, vertical through-hole, shrouded, 11 A, 300 V, green, active.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"Buchanan","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"ROHS3 Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Pin Headers, Sockets & Housings","Header Plugs & Sockets"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors","Type":"Header, Male Pins, Shrouded (4 Side)","Color":"Green","Pitch":"0.138\\\" (3.50mm)","Series":"Buchanan","Package":"Bulk","Features":"Mating Flange","Screw Size":"-","Current - UL":"11 A","Voltage - UL":"300 V","Current - IEC":"-","Mounting Type":"Through Hole","Product Status":"Active","Torque - Screw":"-","Plug Wire Entry":"-","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Contact Material":"Phosphor Bronze","Housing Material":"Polyamide (PA66), Nylon 6/6","Number of Levels":"1","Insulation Height":"0.362\\\" (9.20mm)","Termination Style":"Solder","Wire Strip Length":"-","Header Orientation":"Vertical","Ingress Protection":"-","Base Product Number":"284516","Contact Tail Length":"0.134\\\" (3.40mm)","Number of Positions":"12","Positions Per Level":"12","Contact Mating Finish":"Tin","Operating Temperature":"-40°C ~ 110°C","Wire Gauge or Range - AWG":"-","Wire Gauge or Range - mm²":"-","Material Flammability Rating":"UL94 V-0"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$4.7000","priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$4.70000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$4.12100","currency":"USD"},{"qty":25,"price":"$4.01320","currency":"USD"},{"qty":50,"price":"$3.92680","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$3.68950","currency":"USD"},{"qty":250,"price":"$3.66796","currency":"USD"},{"qty":500,"price":"$3.43062","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1000,"price":"$3.06382","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":null,"sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/1-284516-2/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Where can I buy 1-284516-2 and check current pricing?","answer":"The 1-284516-2 is an active TE Connectivity Buchanan header.

No stock-holding claim is made here; every order is confirmed against the BOM quantity."},{"question":"What is the difference between 1-284516-2 and 1-284514-2?","answer":"Both are 12-position, 3.50 mm pitch, vertical shrouded headers with the same 11 A and 300 V ratings. The 1-284514-2 is the base part number without the -2 suffix — the suffix indicates a specific plating and packaging variant.
