The through-hole vertical orientation and shrouded 4-wall design keep the contacts protected during mating and handling.
The closest functional second-source is the 2029154-3, which shares all electrical ratings and features but uses a right-angle through-hole orientation instead of vertical. If your board layout needs a 90-degree exit, that part is the drop-in alternative.
The 2029154-3 is the closest alternative. It shares the same 3 positions, 4.2 mm pitch, 9 A rating, board lock, and glow wire compliance, but uses a right-angle through-hole orientation instead of vertical.
Yes, the Features field lists Glow Wire Compliant. This qualifies the header for applications requiring resistance to ignition from a hot component, per IEC 60335-1.
