16-Pin, 0.156" Pitch – What It Fits
The 0026482165: This Molex header is a 16-position, single-row, shrouded-1-wall male pin header from the KK396 and 41671 series. In high-vibration environments, consider a header with a positive latch if the mating receptacle lacks its own retention.
Where It Goes – Applications and Environment
The header is a board-to-board or cable-to-board interconnect. The single-wall shroud provides basic keying — the shroud covers one side of the pins, preventing misalignment during mating but not full blind-mate protection.
The base product number is 002648. This 16-position variant is the full-populated version — no partial loading. The bulk package suits volume assembly; the header ships loose, not on tape-and-reel.
