8-Position Plug Housing for 2.00 mm Pitch Harnesses
The TE Connectivity 1-2350224-8 is an 8-position plug housing from the Grace Inertia 2.0 series, designed for wire-to-board or wire-to-wire interconnect in applications where a positive latch keeps the mated pair secure. The housing accepts female socket crimp terminals — the contacts are ordered separately as a distinct BOM line. The 2.00 mm pitch keeps the footprint compact while leaving enough wall thickness between cavities for the latch holder mechanism.
Latch Holder and Free-Hanging Mount
The fastening type is a latch holder — not a friction lock or a simple ramp. That means the plug clicks into the mating header or receptacle and stays put under vibration or cable tug, which is the difference between a connector that stays mated in an automotive underhood harness and one that walks loose. The housing is free-hanging (in-line), so it terminates a wire bundle and mates to a panel-mount or board-mount counterpart without a secondary shell. That temperature range covers automotive interior and engine-adjacent compartments, industrial control cabinets, and outdoor telecom enclosures where the connector sees thermal cycling but not direct washdown.
Contacts Are a Separate Purchase
The listing explicitly notes contacts are not included. The 1-2350224-8 is a housing only — you need to source the matching female socket crimp terminal for the wire gauge your harness calls for. This is a common sourcing trap: the housing arrives and the build stops because the terminals weren't on the same PO. Confirm the terminal part number against the Grace Inertia 2.0 application tooling before you commit the BOM.
Compliance and Lifecycle
The product lifecycle status is Active and RoHS3 compliant.
