25-Position Panel-Mount Plug Housing for MCP Harnesses
The housing ships empty — the 'Contacts Not Included' note on this listing is not a disclaimer but a procurement requirement. You order the 1-1718491-1 housing and then source the matching tab terminals separately, typically from the MCP crimp terminal family. Confirm the wire gauge and current rating of the chosen terminal against the application before committing the BOM; the housing itself imposes no current limit beyond what the terminal and wire can deliver.
Panel-Mount Retention and Sealing Context
The panel-mount design means the housing locks into a rectangular cutout with integral latches or a retention clip — no separate bracket needed. For sealed applications, verify whether the mating receptacle includes a gasket or if a separate seal must be added — the housing itself does not carry an IP rating in the record.
