Product details

D-Sub Plug for Cable Assembly — 9-Position Solder Cup

The Molex 1727040160 is a standard-density D-Sub plug with 9 positions arranged in 2 rows, from the F, FCT 172704 series.

Wiring and Termination — Solder Cup for 20 AWG

Termination is solder cup — each contact has a cup that accepts stripped 20 AWG wire. The solder joint is then insulated with heat-shrink or the backshell cavity. The unthreaded housing/shell flange accepts a standard D-Sub backshell or hood with jackscrews for mating retention.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Molex 1727040160 compatible with standard D-sub hoods?

Yes. The 1727040160 uses a standard DE-9 (E) shell layout with an unthreaded housing/flange, so it accepts any standard D-Sub backshell or hood designed for a 9-position plug. The hood's jackscrews provide the mating retention.

What is the wire gauge for Molex 1727040160?

The solder cup termination is designed for 20 AWG wire. For a reliable solder joint, use a wire with a stripped length that fills the cup without excess solder wicking up the strands.
