Product details

2-position 3.96mm shrouded header for wire-to-board power links

The shrouded design with one wall provides basic polarization and pin protection during handling, while the friction lock keeps the mating receptacle from backing off under vibration — a half-turn loose is a dropout, but this latch holds firm.

Voltage and current: 600VAC, but current depends on your wire

The voltage rating is 600VAC, which covers most machine-tool and panel-level voltages. For a 20 AWG wire, expect around 5-6A per contact; for 18 AWG, up to 7-8A, but always check the terminal datasheet for the derating curve.

The header mounts vertically through-hole, with a contact length - post of 0.125" (3.18mm) — a standard solder-tail length for 1.6mm thick PCBs.

Frequently asked questions

What is the mating connector for 3-644615-2?

This header mates with the MTA-156 receptacle housing and corresponding crimp terminals. Use TE part numbers from the MTA-156 series for the mating half.

Is 3-644615-2 RoHS compliant?

Yes, it is ROHS3 compliant per the manufacturer's listing.
