What This VAL-U-LOK Receptacle Housing Is
Both the pitch between adjacent positions and the row spacing are 0.165" (4.20 mm). That means the mating header's pin field is a square grid at 4.20 mm centers, which is the standard VAL-U-LOK geometry. If your board layout or mating connector uses a different pitch, this housing won't align.
Contacts Are Not Included — Plan Your Terminal Order
The listing notes contacts are not included. Order matching VAL-U-LOK crimp socket terminals separately.
Mating Connector and Latch Lock Retention
In a harness that sees machine vibration or vehicle movement, that latch is what keeps the connection from walking apart.
