5-position header for wire-to-board in tight enclosures
Molex 2074790005 is a 5-circuit, single-row header from the L1NK 396 series, pitched at 0.156" (3.96mm). The latch holder keeps the mated pair locked under vibration — no secondary retention hardware needed.
Footprint and mating half for the harness builder
The 0.156" pitch sets the board footprint: five through-hole solder tails on 3.96mm centers, with a post length of 0.138" (3.50mm) for the PCB hole depth. Overall contact length is 0.693" (17.60mm), which defines the stack height from board surface to mating interface. Mates with the L1NK 396 crimp-style receptacle housing (sold separately). The tin-plated male pins match the tin-plated female terminals in the same series — no galvanic mismatch. Current rating depends on the wire gauge chosen; the contact itself is brass alloy.
Sourcing and compliance for the BOM line
Confirm the mating half and wire gauge before committing the line; the current rating is wire-gauge dependent, not a fixed per-contact value.
