18 Circuits, 5.00 mm Pitch — Junior Power Timer Plug
The silver-plated tab contacts (rectangular shape, copper zinc base) handle the current load typical of this series — silver keeps contact resistance low under higher currents where tin would oxidise and drift. The housing is glass-filled PBT (UL94 V-0 rated by series), black, with an insulation height of 0.720" (18.30 mm). A board guide and integral mounting flange help align the plug during PCB insertion and lock it down against vibration — useful in automotive or industrial panels where the connector sees mechanical shock.
Board Guide and Mounting Flange for Secure Assembly
The mounting flange provides a screw-down point to the board — this takes the cable strain off the solder joints and keeps the mated pair from fretting under vibration. For a power-distribution plug that may carry heavier wire gauges, that flange is a practical reliability feature.
Silver Contact Finish — Rated for Power-Distribution Duty
Silver's bulk conductivity is higher than tin, and it doesn't form the hard oxide layer that tin does, so the contact interface stays stable under higher current densities. The trade-off is that silver tarnishes in sulphide environments — in a sealed or indoor enclosure that's rarely an issue, but worth noting if the application sees industrial fumes.
