Shrouded 4-wall construction protects the tab contacts from bent-pin damage during blind mating. ## Flammability and Temperature Range UL94 V-0 rated housing (glass-filled PA66) means the header won't propagate a flame if the joint overheats — standard for power distribution inside an enclosure.","metaTitle":"6-176976-1 TE Connectivity Universal Power Header, 3 Pos","metaDescription":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 6-176976-1 Universal Power header, 3 positions (2 loaded), 0.156\" (3.96 mm) pitch, shrouded, locking ramp, UL94 V-0, Active.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"Universal Power","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"ROHS3 Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Pin Headers, Sockets & Housings","Pin Headers"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors","Style":"Board to Cable/Wire","Series":"Universal Power","Package":"Bulk","Features":"-","Shrouding":"Shrouded - 4 Wall","Termination":"Solder","Applications":"General Purpose","Contact Type":"Tab","Contact Shape":"Rectangular","Mounting Type":"Through Hole","Connector Type":"Header","Fastening Type":"Locking Ramp","Number of Rows":"1","Pitch - Mating":"0.156\\\" (3.96mm)","Product Status":"Active","Voltage Rating":"-","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Contact Material":"Brass","Insulation Color":"Natural","Insulation Height":"0.551\\\" (14.00mm)","Ingress Protection":"-","Base Product Number":"176976","Insulation Material":"Polyamide (PA66), Nylon 6/6, Glass Filled","Number of Positions":"3","Row Spacing - Mating":"-","Contact Finish - Post":"Tin","Contact Length - Post":"0.150\\\" (3.81mm)","Current Rating (Amps)":"Varies by Wire Gauge","Operating Temperature":"-30°C~105°C","Mated Stacking Heights":"-","Overall Contact Length":"-","Contact Finish - Mating":"Tin","Contact Length - Mating":"-","Number of Positions Loaded":"2","Material Flammability Rating":"UL94 V-0","Contact Finish Thickness - Post":"-","Contact Finish Thickness - Mating":"-"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$0.5600","priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$0.56000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$0.48900","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$0.40350","currency":"USD"},{"qty":500,"price":"$0.35084","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1000,"price":"$0.28944","currency":"USD"},{"qty":5000,"price":"$0.25435","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10000,"price":"$0.23681","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/92497733588eea10a226536c58446d86.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/6-176976-1/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Where can I buy 6-176976-1 and what is the lead time?","answer":"6-176976-1 is an active part from TE Connectivity AMP Connectors, sourced through independent distribution."},{"question":"What is the mating connector for 6-176976-1?","answer":"This is a board-to-cable/wire header.
