5.08mm pitch shrouded header for terminal block interconnects
The 2342084-5 is a 5-position, single-row, shrouded header from TE Connectivity's 5.08mm pitch family. The four-sided shroud protects the pins from accidental shorting and guides the mating plug during assembly — a practical feature for field wiring where the connector is mated blind inside a cabinet. Rated 11 A at 300 V, this header handles typical control power and sensor supply circuits inside an industrial enclosure. The 0.200" pitch matches standard 5.08mm terminal block plugs, making it a direct footprint match for many PCB-mount screw or spring-clamp blocks.
Through-hole vertical mount with high-temp housing
The header mounts vertically through-hole with a 0.102" (2.60mm) solder tail length — a standard length for 1.6mm PCBs. The housing is polyamide (nylon) rated UL94 V-0, and the high-temp material allows the connector to survive wave solder without distortion. Contact mating finish is tin, not gold. Tin is cost-effective for applications with infrequent mating cycles — think fixed wiring where the header is mated once during installation and rarely disconnected.
