The TE VAL-U-LOK 1-2029096-6 is a 16-position, dual-row plug housing designed for free-hanging in-line wire harnesses. It uses a 0.165" (4.20mm) pitch and accepts male pin contacts terminated via crimp.
The dual-row, 16-position layout means the mating half must also be a 16-position, 2-row, 4.20mm pitch receptacle. No board-mount header fits this housing; it is strictly a wire-to-wire or wire-to-board plug that terminates in-line.
What the Pitch and Circuit Count Mean for Your Fit
With 16 positions across 2 rows, each row carries 8 circuits. If your harness calls for a 16-circuit, dual-row, 4.20mm-pitch plug with a locking ramp, this is the housing. The blue colour is a visual key but carries no electrical function.
