Micro Quadlok 6-Position Receptacle Housing for 2.85 mm Pitch Harnesses
It uses a 2.85 mm pitch and is designed for free-hanging (in-line) wire harnesses. This is the female side — it accepts crimp-terminated female socket contacts (ordered separately) and mates with Micro Quadlok male headers.
What the 2.85 mm Pitch and Latch Lock Mean for Your Harness
The 2.85 mm pitch is tighter than the common 3.00 mm or 0.100" standard, so the matching header footprint is smaller — verify the header's pitch matches exactly before laying out the board. The latch lock provides positive retention under vibration, which is why this series sees use in automotive engine bays and industrial equipment where a loose connector means a fault. The -40°C to 80°C operating range covers most underhood and cabinet environments, though you'll want to confirm the crimp terminal's current rating separately (the housing itself doesn't carry a current spec — that's set by the contact and wire gauge).
Contacts Not Included — Order the Correct Crimp Terminal
The housing accepts standard Micro Quadlok contacts; the crimp termination requires a compatible hand or automatic tool.
