The Molex 2058272053 is a 5-circuit single-row receptacle housing from the CONNTAK50 208037 series. It is the female, free-hanging (in-line) side of a wire-to-board or wire-to-wire interconnect — the half that receives the male header pins. The housing is moulded in blue glass-filled PBT with a latch lock that provides positive retention when mated, making it a good fit for harnesses in automotive, industrial control, or appliance applications where vibration is present.
Key Specs for the Harness Designer
The 1.80 mm pitch is the wire-to-wire centreline spacing — it sets the minimum distance between adjacent wires in the bundle and determines the crimp terminal size. A 5-position single-row layout keeps the connector narrow, useful for routing into tight enclosure knockouts or along frame rails. The glass-filled PBT housing holds its dimensional stability through thermal cycling and resists common shop fluids. Crimp termination means the female socket contacts (not included with the housing) are installed with a standard hand crimp tool — no soldering iron needed in the harness build. The latch lock engages with an audible click when mated, giving the assembly technician a positive go/no-go check.
