Three-Position Plug Housing for the MLX 36643 Series
The Molex 0366430003 is a 3-position single-row plug housing from the MLX 36643 series. It is a free-hanging (in-line) connector body designed for wire-to-wire or wire-to-board harness applications where a positive latch lock is needed to keep the pair mated under vibration. Glow wire compliance is listed, which matters for appliance and lighting equipment requiring IEC 60335-1 flame resistance.
Contacts Are Ordered Separately
The listing explicitly notes contacts are not included. This housing accepts male or female crimp terminals (contact type is listed as male or female), so you need to source the matching MLX 36643-series crimp contacts separately for the wire gauge your harness calls for. The contact termination is crimp — no soldering or IDC — so a standard crimp tool for the terminal family is required.
Latch Lock and In-Line Mounting
This is a field-serviceable locking method; the latch releases with a squeeze, so the connector can be unmated without tools. The free-hanging (in-line) mounting type means this plug sits in the middle of a wire harness, not on a panel or PCB.
