Product details

2-Circuit EconoLatch Receptacle Housing, 3.68mm Pitch

The Molex 1501781020 is a 2-circuit receptacle housing from the EconoLatch 150178 series, designed for free-hanging (in-line) wire-to-wire or wire-to-board harness applications. The detent lock provides positive retention when mated with the corresponding EconoLatch plug housing — no secondary latch required.

Contacts Not Included — Order Separately

This housing ships without contacts. You need to source the matching female crimp socket terminals separately — the 150178 series uses standard Molex crimp contacts.

Detent Lock Retention for Vibration Resistance

The detent lock holds the mated pair together under moderate vibration — a practical choice for automotive engine compartments or industrial control cabinets where a secondary latch adds assembly time. The lock engages with an audible click during mating and releases with a squeeze on the ramp.

Frequently asked questions

What contacts fit the 1501781020 housing?

The 1501781020 accepts female crimp socket contacts from the EconoLatch 150178 terminal family. Contacts are not included with the housing — order the correct crimp terminal for your wire gauge separately.

Does the 1501781020 have a locking mechanism?

Yes, the housing uses a detent lock for positive retention when mated. It engages with an audible click and releases by squeezing the locking ramp.
