2.50 mm Pitch, 5-Position Shrouded Header
The 1-2232962-5 is a 5-position single-row shrouded header on 2.50 mm pitch — the footprint matches standard RAST 2.5 wire-to-board housings. The UL94 V-0 nylon housing and glow wire compliance mean this header can be used in equipment that must pass IEC 60335-1 glow wire tests — common in white goods and HVAC.
Locking Ramp and Shroud Design
The header uses a locking ramp fastening system — the ramp engages with the matching housing latch to hold the mated pair under vibration. The 4-wall shrouding fully encloses the 5 tin-plated rectangular tabs, preventing bent pins during handling and guiding the housing into alignment before the ramp locks. Insulation height is 0.610" (15.49 mm) — the tall shroud provides full pin coverage and polarization keying, which mates exclusively with RAST 2.5 housings that have a matching cavity depth.
Through-hole solder termination — the 0.110" (2.79 mm) solder post fits standard 1.0 mm PCB holes.
