JST KR Series IDC Socket — 5-Position, 2.00 mm Pitch
The JST 05KR-6H-P is a 5-position IDC socket in the KR series, designed for mass-termination of 26 AWG discrete wire without stripping or crimping.
Mating Header and Wire Termination
This socket mates with the corresponding KR series pin header — the header's 0.079" (2.00 mm) square pins align with the IDC contact beams. IDC termination requires a simple press tool — no crimp die to swap, but the wire gauge is fixed at 26 AWG; 24 AWG is outside the listed spec and may not seat reliably in the slot.
The gray housing and bulk packaging are standard for this series; no special lead-time or allocation constraints are reported. For volume requirements, confirm the BOM circuit count and mating header part number at quote time.
