The 0.156" pitch is a standard footprint for MTA-156 receptacles — confirm your PCB land pattern matches the 2-position layout. Insulation height of 0.300" (7.62mm) gives the mated connector a low z-height above the board.
The MTA-156 series includes other position counts and orientations, but a direct drop-in replacement for this 2-position right-angle header isn't listed. Verify the BOM line before committing.
Yes, it includes a friction lock that secures the mating receptacle without a secondary latch or threaded coupling.
