It uses a single row of non-gendered crimp contacts on a 0.156" (3.96mm) pitch — the standard spacing for this series, giving enough room for 18-24 AWG wire without crowding the terminals. The natural polyamide 6/6 (PA66) housing provides good dielectric strength and mechanical toughness for general-purpose harness builds inside enclosures or on chassis.
What the 0.156" Pitch Means for Your Build
The 0.156" (3.96mm) pitch is the defining dimension of the KK396 series — it sets the board footprint for the mating header and the wire-to-wire spacing in the harness. At this pitch, the receptacle pairs with standard KK396 vertical or right-angle headers (sold separately). The spacing is wide enough to allow easy hand-crimping and insertion of individual terminals, but tight enough to keep the connector compact for a 16-circuit run.
