Pitch and footprint for board layout
Molex 1722992204 is a 4-position, 2-row vertical header from the Ultra-Fit 172299 series. The 0.138" (3.50 mm) mating pitch sets the PCB hole pattern and routing channel width — at this spacing, two traces per channel fit between pads on standard 1 oz copper. Row spacing is 0.181" (4.60 mm), which defines the keep-out zone for the mating receptacle's latch arms.
Shrouding and latch for vibration environments
Temperature rating and material choices
LCP resists creep at the upper temperature bound, keeping the latch tension consistent over the part's service life.
ROHS3 compliant per the ledged certification.
Mating connector and stack height
Mates with the Ultra-Fit receptacle housing (e.g., 172300 series) using the matching crimp terminal. The mated stack height is 26.99 mm, which sets the board-to-cable clearance in the enclosure.
