12-Position Plug Housing for Universal MATE-N-LOK Harnesses
It accepts both male and female crimp contacts, making it the wire-side half that mates with the corresponding panel-mount or free-hanging receptacle. The three-row layout with 0.250" (6.35mm) row spacing gives you a compact 12-circuit bundle without crowding the terminals — each contact sits in its own cavity with full isolation.
Row Spacing and Mating Pattern
The 0.250" (6.35mm) row spacing defines the contact layout across the three rows. This pitch is standard for the Universal MATE-N-LOK series and matches the receptacle's cavity pattern. When you mate this plug with a 12-position receptacle (such as the 1-480704-0), the contacts align in a 3x4 grid. The free-hanging mounting type means the housing is designed to sit in the middle of a wire run, not on a panel or PCB.
