Right-Angle Header with Friction Lock — What It Fits
The 171814-1008 is an 8-circuit right-angle pin header from the Molex KK RPC 156 family, with a friction lock that keeps the mating receptacle seated under vibration. The friction lock is a molded ramp on the header that clicks into a matching slot on the KK RPC 156 receptacle housing. It prevents the pair from backing apart during cable flex or routine handling — no separate latch hardware needed.
