4-position right-angle header – pitch and orientation first
The 1718573004: The right-angle through-hole termination routes the mating cable parallel to the board, saving vertical clearance in tight enclosures. The single-wall shroud guides the mating connector and protects the male pins from bending during insertion, but leaves one side open for visual alignment of pin one. The friction lock holds the mated pair against moderate vibration — enough for automotive, general purpose, medical, and telecom equipment per the application listing.
Contact finish and current path
Tin is the standard choice for cost-sensitive, low-cycle applications — it oxidises over time but the wiping action of each mate clears the surface.
