3.00 mm pitch, 5 circuits, right-angle exit
The 2157603005: This is a 5-position single-row header from the Molex Micro-Fit+ 215760 series, with a 3.00 mm pitch that sets the board footprint and the mating half requirement. The right-angle orientation routes the cable parallel to the board, saving z-height in tight enclosures. The shrouded 4-wall design protects the male pins during handling and guides the mating receptacle into alignment — a real help on a harness assembly bench where the connector is mated blind. Board lock features anchor the header during wave solder and resist shear forces from the cable after assembly.
Gold mating finish and glow wire housing
The mating contacts carry 3.00 µinch gold over nickel — a flash-grade finish suited for moderate mating cycles in controlled environments. For high-cycle or corrosive-duty applications, the thicker gold option in the Micro-Fit+ family (15 µinch) is the better call.
