TE Connectivity 6-Way IDC Connector Female Cable Mount, 2.54mm Pitch, 5A, 250V AC, Shrouded, Nylon Housing, Model 3-640440-6

TE Connectivity 3-640440-6 IDC Connector is a 6-way female cable-mount connector with 2.54mm pitch, rated for 5A current and 250V AC. It features a shrouded nylon housing and copper contacts plated with tin over nickel for reliable electrical performance and durability.

Designed as part of the MTA-100 2.54mm interconnect system, these connectors enable labour and cost saving mass termination of wires using insulation displacement contact (IDC) technology. This eliminates the need for wire stripping and ensures fast, one-step assembly, suitable for 28 AWG to 22 AWG discrete wires and notched ribbon cables.

The dual beam slotted IDC contacts are lubricated to prevent fretting corrosion and the end to end stackable housings incorporate moulded ribs to prevent reverse mating. A friction lock mechanism secures the mating connection while polarizing tabs provide additional alignment assurance.

This model is rated to operate in a wide temperature range from -55°C to 105°C and complies with electrical current and voltage specifications suitable for automotive, computer, consumer electronics, and industrial wire termination applications. Typical uses include body systems, chassis control, driver information, safety and security systems in automotive, desktop PCs, notebooks, servers, storage, and workstations in computing.

Pre-loaded dual beam IDC contacts for easy one-step wire termination. Lubricated contacts prevent corrosion and increase reliability. Stackable housings with friction lock for secure interconnection. Moulded ribs and polarizing tabs prevent incorrect mating and ensure alignment.

Durable construction with copper contacts and nylon housing. Rated for 5A current and 250V AC voltage. Suitable for mass termination of 28 to 22 AWG wires. Operating temperature range from -55°C to 105°C. Right angle, shrouded, female connector style for cable mounting.

This TE Connectivity IDC connector is ideal for a variety of industrial, automotive, electronic, and computer applications requiring reliable wire-to-wire or wire-to-board connections.
