2.50 mm Pitch, 2-Position Plug Housing for Harness Builds
Contacts Are Ordered Separately — Plan Your BOM
The listing note reads Contacts Not Included, which is standard for Multi-Lock housings — the crimp terminals are a separate line item. For the 174056-2 plug, you need the matching female socket contacts (TE part numbers in the 1-174xxx range, typically tin or gold plated depending on your current and cycle requirements). The housing accepts the standard Multi-Lock crimp terminal for 20–24 AWG wire. Factor the terminal order into your BOM; the housing alone won't make a circuit.
Mating Half and Fit Check
This plug housing mates with the Multi-Lock header (male pin) series — typically a through-hole or surface-mount header with the same 0.098" (2.50 mm) pitch and 2 circuits. The free-hanging orientation means it terminates a cable assembly, not a board. Confirm the header's pin length and board lock style match your application; the housing itself is a straightforward push-to-mate fit.
