Product details

0.156" Pitch IDC Receptacle for 22 AWG Harness Builds

The 0.156" (3.96mm) pitch matches the standard MTA-156 header footprint — a common choice for cost-sensitive, moderate-density wire-to-board interconnects in appliances, HVAC, and industrial control panels. The feed-through feature allows the cable to pass through the connector body, simplifying daisy-chain wiring or pass-through harness topologies without a separate splice or junction. Color is red, which aids visual identification on the line or during field service — a small but practical detail when multiple MTA-156 circuits run in the same harness bundle.

This receptacle terminates 22 AWG wire via IDC — no crimp tool, no loose terminals to feed. The wire type is listed as discrete or ribbon cable, so it handles both individual leads and multi-conductor ribbon in the same body.
