That pitch is nearly double a standard 2.54 mm signal header, which tells the board layout engineer this is a power interconnect: the extra spacing gives you room for wider traces, higher creepage, and a 30 µin gold mating surface rated for repeated disconnect cycles. Mates with the Mega-Fit receptacle housing (sold separately) using the locking ramp. Tin post finish (100 µin) for reliable solder wetting; gold on the mating beam for corrosion resistance.","metaTitle":"1720651008 Molex Mega-Fit Header 8 Pos 5.7mm Pitch","metaDescription":"Molex 1720651008 Mega-Fit header, 8 circuits, 5.70 mm pitch, through-hole, shrouded with locking ramp.
