Molex 3.96mm Pitch 7 Way Crimp Terminal Connector Socket

The Molex 3.96mm Pitch 7 Way Crimp Terminal Connector Socket is a robust and reliable single-row housing designed for secure electrical connections. Its durable polyester construction and integrated friction ramp ensure excellent terminal retention and reliable mating, making it suitable for a wide range of demanding applications.

This connector features a three-point contact design with a dual cantilever terminal, which provides a stable and low-resistance connection. Polarising header backwalls and ribs on the receptacle prevent mismating, ensuring correct orientation during assembly. For added stability on printed circuit boards (PCBs), the headers include retention pegs, while a friction-lock mechanism between headers and receptacles enhances the mechanical connection, preventing accidental disconnection in high-vibration environments.

Part of the proven KK® 396 series, this receptacle is designed for use with compatible crimp terminals. It is a key component for creating organised and secure wiring harnesses and board-to-wire interfaces. Its compact dimensions allow for efficient use of space on PCBs and within enclosures.
