5-Position Right-Angle Header for Board-to-Wire Harnesses
The 640389-5: The housing is shrouded on one wall and uses a friction lock to secure the mating receptacle — a simple retention method that resists vibration without a secondary latch.
The insulation height of 0.300" (7.62mm) clears most standard components on the board. All 5 positions are loaded, so no depopulation concerns.
The part is ROHS3 compliant.
Peer Comparison: Pitch and Position Count
Compared to the 1-292164-1 (CT series, 0.079" pitch, 11 positions), the 640389-5 offers a wider 0.156" pitch and fewer circuits — a trade-off that simplifies routing and allows heavier wire gauges. The 1-1871673-2 (Dynamic series, 0.098" pitch, 4 positions, dual row) targets a denser board-to-board or cable application with board-lock features. Neither is a direct pin-compatible substitute; the selection depends on the required pitch, row count, and mounting orientation.
