What This Housing Is and What It Needs
The Molex 5024390800 is an 8-circuit plug housing from the CLIK-Mate 502439 series, built for wire-to-board interconnect where a positive latch lock holds the pair mated under vibration. The 2.00 mm pitch keeps the board footprint compact, and the single-row layout suits harnesses that route along a panel edge or into a tight enclosure. The housing ships without contacts — the buyer orders the crimp terminals separately and assembles them into the cavity with a hand or pneumatic tool. The white colour is standard for the series — no functional difference from the black variant, but a visual cue for harness routing if the assembly uses colour-coded housings.
Mating Half and Terminal — Three Parts, Not One
This plug mates with a CLIK-Mate 2.00 mm pitch header — the exact order code depends on the header configuration (vertical or right-angle, through-hole or SMT). The matching crimp terminal is a separate line item; the housing accepts the standard CLIK-Mate terminal, which is ordered by wire gauge. Without the terminal and the header, this housing is just a shell.
