Board-to-cable/wire header with latch holder
The 175785-1 is a 20-position, dual-row header from TE's Multi-Lock series, designed for board-to-cable/wire connections. It uses a 3.50mm pitch and a 5.90mm row spacing, giving you a compact but routable footprint on the PCB. A latch holder on the shroud locks the mating housing in place without screws — the latch clicks home and resists vibration-induced separation in automotive and industrial gear.

Mating and termination details
Tin plating is cost-effective for moderate mating-cycle applications — it wears faster than gold but works well where the connector is mated infrequently. Through-hole solder termination with a 4.00mm post length gives a solid mechanical anchor on the board. The 4-wall shrouding protects the tabs during handling and guides the mating housing into alignment.
Temperature range and application fit
The PBT insulation material holds up to typical soldering and cleaning processes. Current rating varies by wire gauge used in the mating half — the header itself does not set the ampacity limit; the wire and terminal do. Confirm the wire size and terminal rating for your load.
