9-Position Receptacle Housing for Wire Harness Assembly
It accepts female blade socket contacts (sold separately) terminated via crimp, then locks into the matching plug housing with a locking ramp — no secondary hardware needed. The 0.287" (7.30 mm) pitch between positions gives good creepage for the 300 V rating and leaves room for larger-gauge wire in the cavity. Typical applications include power distribution in industrial control panels, automotive underhood harnesses, and appliance wiring where a field-serviceable, vibration-resistant connection is required.
Pitch, Positions, and Panel Fit
At 0.287" (7.30 mm) on a 2-row layout, the 9 positions fit a panel cutout that clears the full flange width. The housing is stackable in multiple directions, so multiple 2026500909 units can gang together on a panel without custom bracketry — useful when the circuit count exceeds 9 and you want to keep wire routing modular.
Locking Ramp and Field Service
No screw or clip to lose on the shop floor. For a field-service tech, that translates to quick disconnect without tools — swap a harness section in minutes. The natural PC/PET insulation handles -40°C to 110°C, so it lives in engine compartments and industrial cabinets without embrittling.
Contacts Not Included — Plan Your BOM
The listing note "Contacts Not Included" is the critical procurement detail: this housing ships empty. The housing accepts the standard 202650-series crimp contacts; check the series application drawing for the terminal-to-wire range. Without the contacts on the BOM, the assembly line stops.
It is ROHS3 compliant.
