The 6.35 mm pitch and 0.250" row spacing give each contact room to carry 12 A at 600 VAC without crowding the board trace — the limiting factor is the PCB copper width, not the connector.
The integrated board guide on the housing aligns the header during PCB insertion, preventing pin damage in automated assembly or rework.
The Universal MATE-N-LOK receptacle housing (e.g., 1-480424-0 series) with the matching crimp terminals accepts this header. The 6.35 mm pitch and locking ramp are series-specific — confirm the circuit count and row configuration with the mating half before ordering.
