The TE Connectivity 4-1564337-1 is a 16-position, 2-row receptacle housing from the Heavy Duty Sealed Connector Series, also designated MCP 1.5K/2.8. The slide-on fastening style allows quick mating and unmating in harness assembly or field service, though it lacks the positive lock of a ramp or screw mechanism. The blue PBT glass-filled housing carries a sealed rating, making it suitable for environments where moisture, dust, or washdown exposure is a concern.
The housing is designed to keep contaminants out when mated with the correct header and properly crimped terminals with seals.
This is a receptacle housing only. The female socket contacts must be ordered separately — the MCP 1.5K/2.8 series uses specific crimp terminals that match the wire gauge and seal requirements. The mating half is a header from the same Heavy Duty Sealed Connector Series, MCP 1.5K/2.8, with 16 positions in a 2-row configuration. The slide-on fastening means the header will have a corresponding slide-on latch or detent. For a complete sealed assembly, ensure the crimp terminals include wire seals and that the housing cavity plugs are used for any unused positions.
