TE Connectivity 5-Way 1 Row Shrouded Female IDC Connector for Cable, 600V ac, 7A 3-640427-5

TE Connectivity 3-640427-5 5-Way IDC Connector Female Cable is a high-quality shrouded insulation displacement contact (IDC) connector from the MTA-156 series. This connector features 5 female contacts arranged in a single row with a pitch of 3.96 mm, designed for cable mounting and right-angle orientation. Rated for 600V ac voltage and capable of handling currents up to 7 amperes, it operates reliably within a temperature range of -55°C to 105°C.

The connector housing is constructed using durable white nylon 6/6 compliant with UL94V-2 flammability standards, featuring moulded ribs to prevent incorrect mating. The contacts are copper with tin over nickel plating to ensure excellent conductivity and resistance to corrosion. The IDC termination type supports stranded discrete wire sizes ranging from 18 to 26 AWG, enabling fast mass termination without the need for wire stripping. This design improves production efficiency and reduces labor costs in wire-to-wire and wire-to-board applications.

TE Connectivity's MTA-156 3.96mm IDC system is widely used in industrial, electronic, and manufacturing sectors requiring reliable and cost-effective interconnect solutions. The connectors are colour-coded according to wire size, and certain models incorporate locking ramps and polarization tabs for secure and foolproof connections.

This product does not have specific certifications listed but conforms to robust industrial standards for performance and durability. Its compact size and stackable design make it suitable for space-constrained assemblies in electronic equipment and industrial control systems.
