Product details

VAL-U-LOK 2-Position Dual-Row Plug — Panel-Mount Harness Side

It accepts crimp female socket terminals and snaps into a panel cutout via the integral mounting ears — no separate hardware needed. The 4.20mm pitch and matching 4.20mm row spacing create a square contact grid that keeps wire routing predictable in tight harness bundles.

The Terminal Position Lock (TPA) is a secondary retainer that slides over the crimp terminals after insertion, locking each contact in its cavity. In a service truck or on a factory floor, that TPA keeps a partially seated terminal from backing out under vibration, which is the kind of intermittent fault that sends a technician chasing ghosts.

Temperature Range and Material — Where This Plug Lives

Rated from -55°C to 105°C, the PA66 (Nylon 6/6) housing handles the thermal cycling you see in an engine bay, an industrial cabinet near a motor drive, or outdoor telecom gear that bakes in summer sun. The natural color is the raw material — no dye added, which is typical for parts that don't need UV resistance because they're inside an enclosure or underhood.

Does the 2385533-2 require a specific mating header?

Yes — as a plug, it mates with the matching VAL-U-LOK receptacle housing (female pin header side) of the same 4.20mm pitch and 2-position, dual-row configuration.
