Product details

8-position 3.81 mm plug for control panels

This TE Connectivity Buchanan 284511-8 is an 8-position plug with female sockets, pitched at 0.150" (3.81mm) — a common spacing for industrial terminal blocks and PLC I/O modules. Rated 11 A at 300 V, it suits control wiring in panel builds.

Screw clamp termination for 14-30 AWG

Termination is a screw-type rising cage clamp — strip the wire 5-6 mm, insert into the clamp, and tighten the M2 screw to 0.31 Nm (2.7 Lb-In). No crimp tool needed. Accepts solid or stranded wire from 14 AWG down to 30 AWG (0.05-2 mm²), covering most control and signal wiring in panel builds. The plug wires in straight (180° entry) and includes a mating flange for secure alignment with the header.

No stock-holding claim; quoted per RFQ.
