The rising cage clamp termination grabs the conductor firmly — torque the M3 screw to 0.79 Nm (7.0 Lb-In) for a gas-tight connection that won't vibrate loose. ## Wiring it up — wire range and strip length Accepts 12 to 30 AWG solid or stranded wire, or 0.05 to 3 mm². Strip the insulation to 6-7.5 mm — too short and the cage may not bite the conductor; too long and you risk exposed copper past the clamp. Black color, single-level layout — no stacking levels here.","metaTitle":"796635-2 TE Connectivity Buchanan 2-Position 5.08mm Plug","metaDescription":"796635-2 TE Connectivity AMP Connectors Buchanan series plug, 2 positions, 5.08mm pitch, 15 A, 300 V, screw rising cage clamp, active production.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"Buchanan","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"ROHS3 Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Pin Headers, Sockets & Housings","Header Plugs & Sockets"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors","Type":"Plug, Female Sockets","Color":"Black","Pitch":"0.200\\\" (5.08mm)","Series":"Buchanan","Package":"Bulk","Features":"Retention Latches (Non-Wire Side)","Screw Size":"M3","Current - UL":"15 A","Voltage - UL":"300 V","Current - IEC":"-","Mounting Type":"Free Hanging (In-Line)","Product Status":"Active","Torque - Screw":"0.79 Nm (7.0 Lb-In)","Plug Wire Entry":"180°","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Contact Material":"Phosphor Bronze","Housing Material":"Polyamide (PA66), Nylon 6/6","Number of Levels":"1","Insulation Height":"0.610\\\" (15.49mm)","Termination Style":"Screw - Rising Cage Clamp","Wire Strip Length":"6-7.5mm","Header Orientation":"-","Ingress Protection":"-","Base Product Number":"796635","Contact Tail Length":"-","Number of Positions":"2","Positions Per Level":"2","Contact Mating Finish":"Tin","Operating Temperature":"-40°C ~ 110°C","Wire Gauge or Range - AWG":"12-30 AWG","Wire Gauge or Range - mm²":"0.05-3mm²","Material Flammability Rating":"UL94 V-0"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$1.3000","priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$1.30000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$1.21800","currency":"USD"},{"qty":25,"price":"$1.17280","currency":"USD"},{"qty":50,"price":"$1.16140","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$1.04810","currency":"USD"},{"qty":250,"price":"$1.01412","currency":"USD"},{"qty":500,"price":"$0.92346","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1000,"price":"$0.82715","currency":"USD"},{"qty":5000,"price":"$0.74783","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/1a7612b241adf0d187deae13df93b453.pdf","sourceUrl":null,"alternativesUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/api/mcp/products/796635-2/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the current rating of 796635-2?","answer":"Rated 15 A per position at 300 V per UL.
