The 1776242-4: This plug mates with a matching 3.50mm pitch header (typically a TE Connectivity terminal block header, such as the 1776242 base series). Termination uses a screw-driven rising cage clamp with an M2 screw. The clamp lifts to accept stripped wire, then tightens to secure the conductor — no ferrule required for stranded wire, though a ferrule improves reliability in high-vibration applications.
