Its 2.00mm pitch sets the PCB footprint and the per-contact current ceiling — the actual current rating varies by wire gauge, so the limiting factor is the terminal and wire, not the header itself. The shrouded 3-wall housing protects the male pins during mating and prevents misalignment with the receptacle. Surface-mount termination with a detent lock means the header stays seated during reflow and resists vibration once mated. ## Mating and termination checklist Mates with a CT series receptacle housing that accepts the matching crimp terminal — the detent lock provides audible feedback on full engagement. The 0.177\" (4.50mm) mating pin length ensures contact wipe before lock. SMT termination: the header ships in a tube (not tape-and-reel), so plan for tube-fed placement or manual loading on the line.","metaTitle":"292172-6 TE Connectivity CT Header SMD 6 Pos 2mm Pitch","metaDescription":"292172-6 TE Connectivity CT series header, 6 positions, 2.00mm pitch, SMD, shrouded 3-wall, detent lock, UL94 V-0.
