Two positions loaded means the header is a single-row, 2-circuit interface for a discrete wire pair, common in sensor power, limit switch, or small signal connections where a full multi-pin connector would be overkill.
The friction lock holds the header mated to the receptacle under moderate vibration — it prevents the wire harness from backing out during machine operation or transport.
Yes, this header is designed to mate with MTA-156 receptacle housings from the same series. The 3.96mm pitch and single-row configuration match the standard MTA-156 receptacle layout. Confirm the receptacle part number and terminal wire gauge against the current rating for your application.
Yes, the header includes a friction lock feature.
