This is the receptacle half — it accepts female crimp sockets (sold separately — see the Contacts Not Included note) and locks to the mating header with an integral latch lock. The TPA2 designation means the housing has a Terminal Position Assurance (TPA) feature: a secondary retainer that locks each crimped terminal into its cavity, preventing back-out under vibration. For the harness builder, that translates to fewer intermittent-open failures in high-vibration environments like engine bays or conveyor drives. ## Crimp Termination and the Contacts-Not-Included Note The 1727080014 housing accepts a female crimp socket terminal — the exact Molex order code for the terminal depends on the wire gauge you are running (typically 18-24 AWG for Mini-Fit TPA2). That is the single most common BOM mistake on this part: the buyer orders the housing and expects it to arrive with pins. It does not. The crimp tooling is standard for the Mini-Fit family, and the TPA retainer slides into the housing after the terminals are seated, confirming each one is fully inserted.","metaTitle":"Molex Mini-Fit TPA2 1727080014, 14-Pos Receptacle Housing","metaDescription":"Molex 1727080014 Mini-Fit TPA2 receptacle housing, 14 positions, 4.20mm pitch, 2 rows.
