14 circuits at 5.00 mm pitch – what this header fits
The 963357-3 is a 14-position, dual-row plug header from TE's Junior Power Timer series. Silver-plated tab contacts handle higher current than tin but oxidise faster than gold, so this header is built for power duty with infrequent mating cycles, not for repeated disconnect-reconnect in a corrosive environment. Board-to-cable/wire style: this header mates with a Junior Power Timer receptacle housing that accepts separate crimp terminals (tab contacts on the header side).
Silver contacts and through-hole termination
Contact finish is silver, not tin or gold – a deliberate choice for the Junior Power Timer's power-distribution role. Silver's bulk conductivity is higher than tin's, so the contact interface runs cooler at a given current.
Active production – sourcing posture
Product status is Active with ROHS3 compliance.
The mating connector is a Junior Power Timer receptacle housing (series base code 963357) that accepts crimp terminals for wire sizes typical of power circuits. The dual-row layout with 0.217-inch (5.51 mm) row spacing means the receptacle has two rows of cavities; the header's board guide and mounting flange ensure the pair aligns before the tab contacts engage.
