Product details

3-Position 5.08mm Pitch Header for Control Cabinet Power Distribution

The 796636-3 is a 3-position, single-level vertical header from the Termi-Blok, Buchanan series, on a 5.08mm pitch — a common footprint for industrial terminal block systems. The shrouded design (4 side) guides the mating plug and protects the male pins from accidental bending during wiring. Rated 15 A at 300 V (UL), this header handles moderate power distribution inside a cabinet — think feeding a PLC power supply, a small motor drive, or a fieldbus junction.

What the Tin Contacts and Temperature Range Mean for Your Build

For a fixed terminal block header that stays mated for years in a control panel, tin is the cost-effective choice; gold would be overkill.

Frequently asked questions

What is the mating connector for 796636-3?

This vertical header mates with a Termi-Blok Buchanan plug (female screw-terminal type) on the same 5.08mm pitch. The shrouded 4-side design accepts the matching plug's keyed shroud — confirm the plug part number against your wire gauge and current needs.
