TE Connectivity MULTILOCK 040 II Series Straight Through Hole PCB Socket, 36-Contact, 2 Row, 2.5 mm Pitch, 12V 175977-2

TE Connectivity 175977-2 MULTILOCK 040 II Series Straight Through Hole PCB Socket is a highly reliable 36-contact, 2-row PCB socket designed with a 2.5 mm pitch for wire-to-board connections operating at 12V. The thermoplastic housing provides durability and insulation, making it suitable for automotive and industrial applications where secure and stable electrical connections are critical.

This connector incorporates female brass contacts with tin plating to ensure corrosion resistance and excellent conductivity. Its through-hole mounting style and straight orientation facilitate easy soldering and assembly on printed circuit boards.

The MULTILOCK 040 II series includes an integral double locking mechanism to prevent contact rocking during mating and unmating, improving retention and operational reliability under vibration and thermal cycling. The connector performs within a wide temperature range from -30°C to 105°C, ideal for powertrain, safety, convenience, driver information, and body and chassis systems in automotive applications. Its compact 2.5 mm pitch and 5.2 mm row pitch enable a dense configuration of 36 contacts spread over 2 rows.

This high-density PCB socket series also finds use in general-purpose industrial environments requiring secure wire-to-board connections and robust performance. Typical use cases include powertrain systems, safety and security systems, convenience systems such as air conditioning and radios, driver information modules, and chassis wiring systems.
