Product details

Single-row, 16-position, friction-lock header

The 1-640456-6: This is a 16-position, single-row header from the MTA-100 series, pitched at 0.100" (2.54 mm) — the classic spacing for wire-to-board interconnects on general-purpose PCBs. The male pins are square, tin-plated, and through-hole soldered, with a friction lock that holds the mating housing in place against vibration.

Shrouding and locking for harness retention

The single-wall shrouding protects the pin side from accidental shorting against the board or chassis, while leaving the other three sides open — handy when the harness needs to bend close to the header. The friction lock (not a detent) provides a moderate retention force that still allows field disconnection without tools.

Frequently asked questions

What is the mating connector for 1-640456-6?

This header mates with a matching MTA-100 receptacle housing (board-in or crimp-socket type) that accepts the friction lock. The mating half is a 16-position, single-row, friction-lock receptacle — confirm the exact part number against your harness or housing.

Is 1-640456-6 a shrouded header?

Yes — it has a single-wall shroud on the pin side, protecting the contacts from one direction while leaving the other three sides open for harness routing.
