The 5.08 mm pitch sets the board footprint and the per-contact current ceiling — at 12 A the temperature rise stays within the nylon housing's limit. The 4-wall shroud protects the tin-plated male pins during handling and guides the mating receptacle into alignment — a real advantage over an unshrouded header in a production harness build where the cable plug is inserted blind. Rated 12 A per contact at 250 VAC, this header suits power distribution inside general-purpose equipment — think power supplies, control panels, and appliance PCBs where the current draw per circuit stays under the 12 A ceiling. ## Mating half and locking This header mates with Commercial MATE-N-LOK receptacle housings that accept the matching crimp terminals — the 4-wall shroud and integral latch ramp on the housing provide a positive lock against vibration. The locking feature is on the receptacle side, not the header itself. The tin-on-tin contact interface is rated for a moderate number of mating cycles — suitable for equipment that is assembled once and serviced infrequently. For field-service applications where the connector is cycled repeatedly, a gold-plated sibling would give more reconnect margin. ## Sourcing and lifecycle status ROHS3 compliant, UL94 V-2 rated nylon housing. The base product number is 350423, which covers the series variants.","metaTitle":"350423-1 TE Connectivity 3-Pin Header 5.08mm Pitch","metaDescription":"350423-1 TE Connectivity AMP Connectors Commercial MATE-N-LOK header, 3 positions, 5.08mm pitch, through-hole, shrouded, 12A, 250VAC, tin-plated.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"Commercial MATE-N-LOK","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"ROHS3 Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Pin Headers, Sockets & Housings","Pin Headers"],"specifications":{"Style":"Board to Cable/Wire","title":"350423-1","Series":"Commercial MATE-N-LOK","Package":"Bulk","Shrouding":"Shrouded - 4 Wall","Termination":"Solder","description":"CONN HEADER VERT 3POS 5.08MM","Applications":"General Purpose","Contact Type":"Male Pin","Contact Shape":"Circular","Mounting Type":"Through Hole","Connector Type":"Header","Number of Rows":"1","Pitch - Mating":"0.200\\\" (5.08mm)","Voltage Rating":"250VAC","Contact Material":"Copper Alloy","Insulation Color":"Natural","Insulation Height":"0.375\\\" (9.53mm)","Base Product Number":"350423","Insulation Material":"Polyamide (PA), Nylon","Number of Positions":"3","Contact Finish - Post":"Tin","Contact Length - Post":"0.210\\\" (5.33mm)","Current Rating (Amps)":"12A","Operating Temperature":"-55°C ~ 105°C","Contact Finish - Mating":"Tin","Number of Positions Loaded":"All","Material Flammability Rating":"UL94 V-2"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$1.1300","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$1.13000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$1.05300","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$0.90580","currency":"USD"},{"qty":500,"price":"$0.79808","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1000,"price":"$0.71484","currency":"USD"},{"qty":5000,"price":"$0.64630","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10000,"price":"$0.60596","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/565fa3066b14eb097e4835fdb17f6be5.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the recommended mating connector for 350423-1?","answer":"The 350423-1 mates with Commercial MATE-N-LOK receptacle housings that accept the corresponding crimp terminals.
