5-Position Shrouded Header for Terminal Block Interfaces
Rated 12 A at 150 V per UL, the header suits power distribution in industrial control cabinets, PLC I/O racks, and HVAC equipment where each circuit carries moderate load.
Through-Hole Vertical Mount for Board-Level Power
The header mounts vertically through the PCB with solder termination; the contact tail length of 0.134" (3.40 mm) provides enough protrusion for a reliable solder fillet on a standard 1.6 mm board. Tin-plated copper alloy contacts are rated for the full 12 A at 30°C rise in still air. Tin is suitable for moderate mating cycles (typically 25-50 cycles) in a fixed installation where the header is mated once during assembly and rarely disconnected. For applications requiring frequent reconnection, consider a gold-plated variant.
The base product number 2351886 covers the series; the -5 suffix specifies the 5-position variant.
Comparing Peer Alternatives in the Buchanan Series
Peer MPNs 1-2213934-1, 1-2305909-1, and 1-2213935-1 are also active Buchanan headers in bulk packaging, but the evidence does not confirm their position count, pitch, or current rating. The 2351886-5 is the only 5-position, 3.50 mm pitch variant confirmed in this ledger. For a different circuit count or pitch, those peers may be functional alternatives, but verify the specific ratings before substituting.
