It carries a 13.5 A current rating at 300 V, which is the practical limit for a 16-30 AWG wire terminated under a rising cage clamp. The housing is green polyamide 6/6, and the contacts are brass with tin plating — adequate for moderate environments where repeated mating cycles are not the primary wear mode. ## M3 screw torque and wire clamping The screw-rising cage clamp uses an M3 screw torqued to 0.68 Nm (6 Lb-In) — that torque spec is the single most important number on the harness bench. Over-torque strips the brass screw; under-torque leaves the wire loose under vibration. The clamp and screw are both brass with nickel plating, which resists corrosion in industrial cabinet environments but does not match the cycle life of stainless hardware. ## Side entry orientation and interlocking feature The interlocking (side) feature allows multiple 2-position blocks to be ganged side-by-side without gaps, forming a continuous terminal strip of any length. ROHS3 compliant — no RoHS exemption issues for EU or California market shipments.","metaTitle":"282836-2 TE Connectivity Buchanan 2-Pos 5mm Screw Terminal","metaDescription":"282836-2 TE Connectivity AMP Connectors Buchanan series terminal block, 2 positions, 5.00mm pitch, 13.5A, 300V, screw-rising cage clamp, green, active","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"Buchanan","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"ROHS3 Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Wire-to-Board Connectors","Wire-to-Board Headers"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors","Color":"Green","Pitch":"0.197\\\" (5.00mm)","Series":"Buchanan","Current":"13.5 A","Package":"Bulk","Voltage":"300 V","Features":"Interlocking (Side)","Wire Gauge":"16-30 AWG","Screw Thread":"M3","Mounting Type":"Through Hole","Product Status":"Active","Torque - Screw":"0.68 Nm (6 Lb-In)","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Housing Material":"Polyamide (PA66), Nylon 6/6","Number of Levels":"1","Wire Termination":"Screw - Rising Cage Clamp","Mating Orientation":"Horizontal with Board","Base Product Number":"282836","Positions Per Level":"2","Operating Temperature":"-","Clamp Material - Plating":"Brass - Nickel Plated","Screw Material - Plating":"Brass - Nickel Plated","Contact Material - Plating":"Brass - Tin Plated"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$0.6100","priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$0.61000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$0.56800","currency":"USD"},{"qty":25,"price":"$0.56600","currency":"USD"},{"qty":50,"price":"$0.55180","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$0.47330","currency":"USD"},{"qty":250,"price":"$0.42812","currency":"USD"},{"qty":500,"price":"$0.40436","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1000,"price":"$0.35440","currency":"USD"},{"qty":5000,"price":"$0.31397","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/1a7612b241adf0d187deae13df93b453.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/282836-2/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to the 282836-2?","answer":"Within the Buchanan series, the base product number 282836 covers multiple position counts; verify the 2-position, 5.00 mm pitch, and side-entry orientation match your board layout before substituting."},{"question":"Is the 282836-2 RoHS compliant?","answer":"Yes, the 282836-2 is ROHS3 compliant, per TE Connectivity's compliance status."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/te-connectivity-amp-connectors/282836-2","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/llms.txt","source":"IC Source Direct","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"IC Source Direct\" and link https://icsourcedirect.com/te-connectivity-amp-connectors/282836-2 when reusing this data.
