Rated for panel-mount applications where the connector needs to stay put against cable tug and vibration, this is the shell you build a harness around. ## Contacts Not Included — Don't Let That Trip You Up No contacts, no seals, no backshell — just the polyamide shell with the locking ramp and panel-mount latches. The housing accepts both, so one part number covers either configuration. Common mistake: ordering only the housing and stalling the build waiting for terminals. Add the contacts to the BOM at the same time. ## Snap-In Panel Mount With Locking Ramp It's the same latch system used across the Universal MATE-N-LOK family: positive retention without tools, and you can still unmate it by pressing the ramp release. The natural polyamide (PA66) housing handles the usual -40 to 105 °C range typical of this series, though the exact temperature rating depends on the contacts and wire you load into it. The 926308-3 is the 8-position single-row receptacle in the Universal MATE-N-LOK line. Compared to the 5-position 1379217-6 (which has 3 signal + 2 power positions in a mixed-layout housing), the 926308-3 gives you 8 identical cavities in a straight row — no mixed-gauge or keyed positions. Both use the same locking ramp and accept the same crimp terminals, so if you already have the contacts and tooling for one, the other is a straight swap in the harness build. The 926308-3 is the higher-density option when you need 8 circuits in a single-row panel-mount footprint.","metaTitle":"TE Connectivity 926308-3 Universal MATE-N-LOK Receptacle","metaDescription":"TE 926308-3 Universal MATE-N-LOK receptacle housing, 8 positions, single row, panel mount with locking ramp.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"Universal MATE-N-LOK","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"RoHS Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Wire-to-Board Connectors","Connector Housings"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors","Note":"Contacts Not Included","Color":"Natural","Series":"Universal MATE-N-LOK","Package":"Bulk","Features":"-","Row Spacing":"-","Contact Type":"Male or Female","Mounting Type":"Panel Mount, Snap-In","Connector Type":"Receptacle","Fastening Type":"Locking Ramp","Number of Rows":"1","Product Status":"Active","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Base Product Number":"926308","Contact Termination":"Crimp","Insulation Material":"Polyamide (PA66), Nylon 6/6","Number of Positions":"8","Operating Temperature":"-"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$3.3900","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$3.39000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$3.01600","currency":"USD"},{"qty":25,"price":"$3.00120","currency":"USD"},{"qty":50,"price":"$2.97040","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$2.67790","currency":"USD"},{"qty":250,"price":"$2.66252","currency":"USD"},{"qty":500,"price":"$2.46244","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1000,"price":"$2.20081","currency":"USD"},{"qty":2500,"price":"$2.03152","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/a277e2c2a65e3e21a3c215419ec710c3.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Where can I buy 926308-3 and get a price?","answer":"Submit a quote request with your target quantity and the current price and lead time will be confirmed — no stock-holding claim, no automated price on the page."},{"question":"What contacts are compatible with 926308-3?","answer":"The 926308-3 accepts Universal MATE-N-LOK crimp terminals in either male pin or female socket configuration.

It is not a direct position-for-position swap — the 926308-3 has 8 identical cavities versus the mixed-layout 5-position version.
