The shell size 7 insert accommodates six contacts in a circular layout; the backshell and clamp provide strain relief for the cable bundle. For field-service techs or low-volume builds, the solder cup approach is straightforward to rework: one contact at a time, no special die set. The push-pull lock engages with a positive click; there is no secondary locking mechanism, so in high-vibration environments a cable tie beyond the strain relief is worth considering. ## Plating Variant — Silver vs Gold The HR10A-7P-6S(73) uses silver mating contacts (78.7 µin). The sibling HR10A-7P-6S(74) is identical in every other spec — same 6 positions, 2 A rating, push-pull lock, backshell — but swaps the silver plating for gold (8.00 µin). The choice between them comes down to the mating environment: silver gives lower contact resistance on first mate and is cost-effective for clean, dry indoor use; gold is the better call for corrosive atmospheres or applications requiring more than a few hundred mate-unmate cycles. If your BOM calls for the (74) suffix and you're considering the (73) as a substitute, confirm the plating duty matches your service life requirement.","metaTitle":"Hirose HR10A-7P-6S(73) Plug, 6 Position, 2A, Solder Cup","metaDescription":"Hirose HR10A-7P-6S(73) HR10A series plug, 6 female sockets, 2A, 100VAC/140VDC.
