Product details

2-Position, 5.00 mm Pitch, 35° Wire Exit

The TE Connectivity Buchanan 796689-2 is a 2-position PCB terminal block with a 0.197" (5.00 mm) pitch and a 35° (145°) mating orientation relative to the board. This angled wire exit is the key selection detail — it lets you route wires parallel to the PCB plane rather than straight up, which matters when the block sits near an enclosure wall or a tall component.

17.5 A, Rising Cage Clamp Termination

The rising cage clamp accepts 12-30 AWG and torques to 0.79 Nm (7.0 Lb-In) via the M3 brass-nickel screw. The brass-tin-plated contact and clamp resist corrosion in industrial cabinet environments.
