This housing is designed for wire-to-wire or wire-to-panel interconnect applications where a reliable, vibration-resistant connection is needed, such as in appliance, automotive, and industrial control harnesses.
The 1-480699-0 mates with the corresponding Universal MATE-N-LOK plug housing of the same position count — the 2-position male header is the typical mating half.
The 1-480699-0 is a 2-position, single-row receptacle. The sibling 1-2069332-1 is a 4-position, dual-row receptacle with a mounting flange and a wider 0.400" (10.16 mm) pitch. The choice between them comes down to circuit count and row configuration — the 1-480699-0 fits a simple 2-circuit inline harness, while the 1-2069332-1 suits a 4-circuit application requiring a wider board footprint or higher mechanical retention from the flange.
What Contacts Are Compatible
This housing accepts Universal MATE-N-LOK crimp terminals. Both male pin and female socket contacts are compatible, allowing the housing to serve as either a plug or receptacle depending on the terminal loaded. The contacts are crimped to the wire before insertion into the housing cavity.
