It carries 5 positions on a 0.156" (3.96mm) pitch — a spacing that gives you room to route heavier wire without crowding the board. The 7.5A current rating per contact at 250VAC suits general-purpose industrial and lighting loads where the connector sees moderate duty cycles. The housing is a natural polyamide (PA) glass-filled material rated UL94 V-2, and it is glow wire compliant for equipment that must pass a glow-wire ignition test.
Pitch, positions, and mating half
The 3.96mm pitch is the Economy Power standard, shared across the series. This header has 5 positions, but only 4 are loaded — position 5 is a vacant slot, often used for keying or for a future circuit addition without a tooling change. Compared to a finer-pitch header like the 1376366-8 (2.20mm pitch, 8 positions, 5A), this part trades density for higher current capacity and easier hand-wiring. The 7.5A rating is 50% higher than the 5A of the 1376366-8, and the 3.96mm pitch gives more room for larger wire gauges.
