The insulation height of 0.195" (4.95 mm) gives the shroud enough depth to guide the receptacle home without side-loading the contacts.
Current rating and plating — signal duty, not power bus
Rated 3 A per contact with tin-on-tin mating surfaces (80.0 µinch / 2.03 µm on both post and mating face). The 250 V voltage rating is consistent with the 2.00 mm pitch creepage distance. In a 24 VDC industrial control cabinet or a 12 V automotive body harness, the margin is generous — the connector is not the voltage-limiting component in the circuit.
Press-fit termination — solderless assembly for vibration resistance
This eliminates solder-joint fatigue in high-vibration environments — automotive engine compartments, industrial machinery, or medical equipment that undergoes regular transport. The right-angle body also accepts a secondary solder operation if the assembly process requires both mechanical retention and a wetted joint. The square pin shape (0.64 mm typical for 2.00 mm pitch) provides a consistent insertion force profile across the mating cycle life.
