3-position single-row header with friction lock
The 281695-3 is a 3-position, single-row header from TE's HE13/HE14 series, on 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch. It's a shrouded - 2 wall design with a friction lock to keep the mating half seated under vibration — useful if you're replacing a connector on a conveyor or panel that sees regular movement.
Pitch, plating, and what that means on site
The post length is 0.114" (2.90mm) — confirm your PCB thickness before soldering.
Through-hole solder termination, male pin with square contact shape, phosphor bronze base. The 0.449" (11.40mm) insulation height means the shroud clears most standard wire-entry angles. Blue insulator colour helps spot it on a crowded board.
