36-Position Sealed Plug for Dense Harness Routing
The 5-row layout packs the 36 circuits into a compact footprint, which means the harness builder must plan for dense wire routing and potentially staggered crimp tool access. The black, glass-filled PBT housing carries the sealed feature — a critical detail: the seal integrity holds only when the connector is fully mated and the lever lock is engaged. Unmated, the open half is vulnerable to washdown or splash, so cap the open side during assembly or storage.
Crimp Termination and Mating Half
The 5-row, 36-position arrangement means the mating half is a 36-position header with tab contacts, also sealed and lever-locked, from the same MCP series. The lever lock provides a positive, vibration-resistant mate with an audible click; in field-service conditions, the lever is easier to operate than a threaded coupling when wearing gloves. The glass-filled PBT insulation material holds up to underhood temperatures and industrial washdown chemistry, but confirm the specific seal material against your fluid exposure.
