Compared to the fully populated 7-position version (base number 643464-1), the 643464-2 saves one circuit while keeping the same housing and footprint — useful when the BOM calls for 6 signal wires in a 7-position connector. Mates with MTA-156 receptacle housings that accept 0.156\" pitch crimp or IDC terminals.","metaTitle":"643464-2 TE Connectivity MTA-156 Header 7 Pos 0.156\" Pitch","metaDescription":"643464-2 TE Connectivity AMP MTA-156 header, 7 positions (6 loaded), 0.156\" (3.96mm) pitch, shrouded 1 wall, friction lock, tin contacts, UL94 V-0.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Pin Headers, Sockets & Housings"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors","Style":"Board to Cable/Wire","Series":"MTA-156","Package":"Bulk","Features":"-","Shrouding":"Shrouded - 1 Wall","Termination":"Solder","Applications":"General Purpose, Industrial","Contact Type":"Male Pin","Contact Shape":"Square","Mounting Type":"Through Hole","Connector Type":"Header","Fastening Type":"Friction Lock","Number of Rows":"1","Pitch - Mating":"0.156\\\" (3.96mm)","Product Status":"Active","Voltage Rating":"600VAC","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Contact Material":"Copper Alloy","Insulation Color":"Natural","Insulation Height":"0.425\\\" (10.80mm)","Ingress Protection":"-","Base Product Number":"643464","Insulation Material":"Thermoplastic, Glass Filled","Number of Positions":"7","Row Spacing - Mating":"-","Contact Finish - Post":"Tin","Contact Length - Post":"0.125\\\" (3.18mm)","Current Rating (Amps)":"Varies by Wire Gauge","Operating Temperature":"-55°C ~ 105°C","Mated Stacking Heights":"-","Overall Contact Length":"0.650\\\" (16.51mm)","Contact Finish - Mating":"Tin","Contact Length - Mating":"0.400\\\" (10.16mm)","Number of Positions Loaded":"6","Material Flammability Rating":"UL94 V-0","Contact Finish Thickness - Post":"-","Contact Finish Thickness - Mating":"-"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$0.7300","priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":null,"sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/643464-2/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the exact pitch of 643464-2?","answer":"The pitch is 0.156\" (3.96mm), measured centre-to-centre between adjacent pins."},{"question":"What is the mating housing for TE 643464-2?","answer":"It mates with MTA-156 receptacle housings from the same series, which accept 0.156\" pitch crimp or IDC terminals and include a friction-lock feature."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/te-connectivity-amp-connectors/643464-2","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/643464-2 when reusing this data.
