The dual-row layout with 0.236" (6.00 mm) row spacing provides adequate creepage for moderate-voltage power and signal circuits.
Procurement Note — Contacts Not Included
This is standard for MIC-series housings, where the terminal selection depends on the wire gauge and current requirement. For a complete mated pair, you will also need the matching male header (typically a MIC-series pin header with the same 5-position, 2-row layout). Confirm the contact part number and the mating header against your BOM before committing.
How It Compares — Same-Series Peers
The closest functional peer within the MIC family is the 1-1376477-6, a 6-position single-row plug housing with a 0.098" (2.50 mm) pitch. The key difference: the 172026-1 uses a 2-row, 5-position layout with 0.236" (6.00 mm) row spacing, while the 1-1376477-6 is a single-row, 6-position part with a tighter pitch.
