Product Introduction
The Molex 1726722003 is a 3-circuit receptacle housing from the Super Sabre 172672 series, designed for high-current power interconnect applications. It uses a 7.50 mm pitch, single-row layout with a latch lock for secure mating in free-hanging (in-line) wire-to-wire or wire-to-board harnesses. The housing is molded from black PA nylon rated for -40°C to 125°C, and accepts female blade socket terminals (sold separately) via crimp termination.
Key Ratings and What They Mean
Rated 34 A per circuit, this housing carries bus-level current — each power blade is sized for the main DC rail or high-current distribution, not a signal line. The 7.50 mm pitch provides ample creepage for the 34 A rating without forcing an oversized board footprint. The latch lock keeps the mated pair together under vibration, making it suited for industrial cabinet or automotive harness environments where the connector sees mechanical shock.
