The free-hanging (in-line) body with 180° wire entry lets the cable run straight into the enclosure, keeping the wiring neat inside a cabinet or junction box. ## Screw Clamp and Mating Flange Details The rising cage clamp lifts a pressure plate against the wire — the screw does not rotate against the conductor, so stranded wire stays intact under the specified torque. A mating flange on the plug body accepts the corresponding header's locking feature, providing pull-out resistance in a panel where the cable sees occasional tugging. Contact mating finish is tin — rated for the typical 50-100 mating cycles of a terminal block application, not for high-cycle field-service reconnect duty.","metaTitle":"796859-4 TE Connectivity Buchanan 4-Position 5.08mm Plug","metaDescription":"Active 4-position plug, 5.08mm pitch, 15A/300V, screw rising cage clamp, free-hanging, green, UL94 V-0.
