TE Connectivity MULTILOCK 070 Male Connector Housing 5.5 mm Pitch 8 Way 2 Row Straight 1-173850-1

TE Connectivity 1-173850-1 MULTILOCK 070 Male Connector Housing is engineered for automotive wire-to-wire and wire-to-board applications requiring a compact, durable, and high-density connector solution. Designed with 8 contacts arranged in 2 rows spaced at a 5.5 mm pitch, this connector ensures reliable performance in demanding environments.

The housing is made of Polybutylene Terephthalate, providing mechanical strength and resistance to environmental factors commonly encountered in automotive systems. The straight cable mount orientation simplifies installation and wiring routing.

A key design feature is the integral double locking mechanism that securely retains contacts during operation, preventing accidental disconnection. Additionally, the housing lance design enables the use of lanceless contacts, eliminating deformation and tangling issues associated with traditional lance contacts.

This connector supports mixed terminal types, including .070 terminals for power circuits and .040 terminals for signal circuits, enhancing its versatility in complex electrical systems such as powertrains, safety, security, driver information, and body control modules.

The MULTILOCK 070 series connectors protect contact points from KOJIRI Action damage that occurs during mating and unmating cycles, improving connector longevity and reliability. The compact 24.8 mm length and 26 mm width facilitate efficient space utilization within automotive harnesses and assemblies.
