The 0.138\" (3.50mm) pitch leaves enough trace width for 600V-rated routing on a standard 2-layer board without needing a tight stack-up. Mated stacking height is 26.99mm — that's the z-height from the board surface to the top of the mated receptacle. Check your enclosure clearance before committing. ## Mating and retention The header is fully shrouded with a 4-wall design, so the mating receptacle is guided in and the pins are protected from accidental bending during handling or rework. The latch holder fastening type provides positive locking — the mating half clicks in and won't back out under vibration. This is the same latch used across the Ultra-Fit 172286 family. The post side is tin with 60.0µin (1.52µm) thickness, which solders cleanly into the plated through-hole. ## Sourcing and compliance ROHS3 Compliant. Housing is Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) rated UL94 V-0. Operating temperature range -40°C to 120°C covers automotive underhood and industrial cabinet duty.","metaTitle":"Molex 1722861203 Ultra-Fit Header 3 Position 3.5mm","metaDescription":"Molex Ultra-Fit 1722861203 header, 3 positions, 3.50mm pitch, single row, shrouded 4-wall, latch holder, gold plating.
