The Molex 0348944012 is an 8-position receptacle housing from the Mini50 34894 series, designed for sealed in-line wire-to-wire or wire-to-device connections in automotive and other high-vibration environments. The 1.80 mm pitch allows a denser cavity layout than standard 2.54 mm connectors, saving space in junction boxes and engine bay harnesses. Contacts are ordered separately (crimp female sockets), so the BOM must include the matching terminal part number.
Sealing and Retention for Automotive Duty
The housing is listed as sealed, which means it carries an environmental seal — typically an interfacial seal and wire seals — to keep moisture and contaminants out of the cavity. That makes it a candidate for underhood, door, or exterior lighting harnesses where water ingress would cause terminal corrosion.
