The Molex 0366440006 is a 9-position receptacle housing from the MLX 36644 series, built on a 0.250" (6.35mm) pitch across three rows. This is the housing half of a wire-to-wire or wire-to-board power interconnect — it accepts either male or female crimp terminals (sold separately) and locks into the mating plug header via the integral locking ramp.
Terminals and Mating — What You Need to Order Separately
The housing ships empty — contacts are not included. You'll need to order the matching MLX 36644-series crimp terminals (male pin or female socket, depending on your circuit direction) and a hand or pneumatic crimp tool. The housing accepts both male and female contact types, so it can serve as either the receptacle or the plug side depending on which terminal you load. Panel mount snap-in retention holds the housing in a cutout, and the locking ramp provides an audible click when fully mated — a solid check for field assembly.
Glow Wire and Material Compliance
The polyamide (nylon) housing carries a Glow Wire Compliant rating, which means it meets the glow-wire ignition test required for certain appliance, lighting, and HVAC equipment standards. The natural colour is the raw material — no dye added, which can simplify material traceability for compliance audits. ROHS3 compliant per current status.
