Product details

Wire-to-board header for MTA-156 harnesses

Its 0.156" (3.96mm) pitch mates with standard MTA-156 crimp or IDC receptacles, and the friction lock holds the pair together under moderate vibration.

At 3 circuits and 3.96mm pitch, this header fits a tight BOM position count for power or signal distribution. The 600VAC voltage rating and UL94 V-0 housing support equipment inside enclosures that require flame-rated materials. Compared to the higher-density 2.50mm-pitch 1-1871673-2 (4 positions, dual row, board lock), the 3-641208-3 trades density for larger wire gauge accommodation and simpler single-row routing.

ROHS3 compliant.
