Product details

Active production, ready to quote

The 796634-2: RoHS3 compliant per the listed compliance status.

Wire termination and torque

The rising cage clamp pulls the wire against a flat contact surface — no ferrule required, though a ferrule helps with fine-stranded wire in the 24-30 AWG range.

Two positions on a single level, 0.200" (5.08 mm) pitch. The plug is free-hanging (in-line) with 180° wire entry — the wire exits straight out the back, which suits panel-to-board runs where the cable routes directly away from the header. Insulation height is 0.610" (15.49 mm) — check the clearance above the mating header in the enclosure. Retention latches on the non-wire side lock the plug into the header; the latch is moulded into the housing and engages audibly.

Rated 15 A at 300 V (UL) — the current ceiling is set by the contact and housing thermal limits; the 12 AWG wire can carry the full 15 A without exceeding the 110°C operating maximum. Contact mating finish is tin — adequate for moderate mating cycles (50-100) in a clean environment.

Supplied in bulk packaging. The base product number is 796634; the -2 suffix designates the 2-position version.

Frequently asked questions

What is the torque specification for 796634-2?

The specified torque is 0.79 Nm (7.0 Lb-In). Use a calibrated screwdriver — exceeding this can strip the M3 screw; under-torquing may cause a high-resistance connection.

What wire gauge does 796634-2 accept?

It accepts 12-30 AWG (0.05-3 mm²) solid or stranded wire with a strip length of 6-7.5 mm. The rising cage clamp grips the conductor directly — no ferrule required.
