This is a production-speed advantage when building discrete wire harnesses at the 2.00 mm pitch. The plug accepts discrete wires, not ribbon cable, so each conductor is individually positioned before the IDC cap is pressed down. The single-row, 8-position layout keeps the connector narrow for tight harness routing. The latch lock engages audibly on full mate — the lock provides the primary retention, so the connector won't separate under cable strain or moderate vibration. For a free-hanging connector, that latch is the difference between a reliable harness and a field failure. The black housing is standard for this series. ## Lifecycle and Regulatory Status It is ROHS3 compliant, satisfying EU material restrictions for the BOM. The base product number is 1473562, which covers the RITS series variants at this pitch and contact configuration. The 8-position count and 2.00 mm pitch are the critical BOM line checks; confirm the mating half (RITS receptacle) before committing the line item.","metaTitle":"TE Connectivity 4-1473562-8 RITS Plug, 8 Pos, 2.00 mm Pitch","metaDescription":"TE Connectivity RITS series IDC plug, 8 positions, 0.079\" (2.00 mm) pitch, gold-plated male pins, latch lock, free-hanging, ROHS3 compliant.
