Within the MCP series, the 1-968849-2 carries gold plating versus the tin-plated 929989-8 socket and the 1-1326032-0 socket — the gold finish supports more mating cycles than tin, while the 17-20 AWG wire range is shared across the series.
The 929989-8 is a same-series MCP crimp socket with the same 17-20 AWG wire range and crimp termination, but uses tin contact finish instead of gold — the gold plating on 1-968849-2 provides higher mating cycle durability.
