28-Position Plug Housing, 1.50mm Pitch — Contacts Not Included
The Molex 5031492800 is a 28-position plug housing from the CLIK-Mate 503149 series, built on a 1.50mm pitch in a dual-row layout. The single most important thing to know before ordering: contacts are not included. The contact type is non-gendered, meaning the same terminal fits both the plug and receptacle housings in the CLIK-Mate 503149 system — simplifies the BOM if you're building both halves.
What the 1.50mm Pitch and 28 Positions Mean for Your Fit
At 1.50mm pitch, this housing sits in the fine-pitch range — denser than the common 2.54mm (0.100") headers but not as tight as 1.00mm or 0.80mm micro connectors. The 28 positions in two rows gives a 14-per-row layout, which keeps the connector width manageable for harness routing in tight enclosures. The free-hanging (in-line) mounting type means it's designed for cable-to-board connections, not panel mounting — the latch lock holds it to the header, and the PBT housing takes the strain. Compared to the 14-position sibling in the same series (e.g. 5031491400), this 28-position version doubles the circuit count at the same 1.50mm pitch and row configuration. The decision between them is purely a circuit-count match to your BOM — the footprint, latch style, and terminal compatibility are identical.
