The Molex 0901430040 is a 40-position, dual-row receptacle housing from the C-Grid III 90143 series.
A common gotcha with this housing: the 0901430040 ships as an empty shell. The dual-row layout gives you 20 cavities per row, with a polarization rib that prevents mis-mating with the header.
The housing has a keying feature that aligns with the header's polarization slot, so the connector can only be inserted one way.
Contacts are not included, so buyers need to source the correct female socket contacts separately to build a complete connector.
Brokers and buyers need to know long-term availability to avoid supply chain disruptions.
Engineers need to pair the receptacle with the correct header for interconnect design.
Sourcing buyers need immediate availability and distributor options to fill BOM lines.
Commercial buyers evaluate cost per unit for volume procurement and budget planning.
Lead time impacts production schedules and inventory planning for sourcing buyers.
