10-Circuit Micro-Latch 51065 Receptacle Housing
The Molex 0510651000 is a 10-position receptacle housing from the Micro-Latch 51065 series, designed for wire-to-board interconnects where a compact 2.00 mm pitch keeps board real estate tight.
The 0.079" (2.00 mm) pitch is a middle ground between the ultra-dense 1.25 mm and the roomier 2.54 mm spacing — it gives enough creepage for 24-28 AWG wire without forcing a wide connector footprint. The friction lock is a simple molded ramp on the housing that snaps over the header latch; it does not require a separate clip or tool to engage, which speeds up harness assembly. For a production line, this means one less component to kit and one less assembly step.
Contacts Not Included — Sourcing the Crimp Terminals
The housing ships empty — you need to order the Micro-Latch 51065 female crimp terminals separately. The terminal part numbers are not listed here, but they are the standard 2.00 mm pitch contacts for this series, typically accepting 24-28 AWG wire. If you are building a harness, add the terminals to the BOM line alongside this housing so the line does not stop waiting for a separate purchase order.
