Product Features

This 2.2 Pitch 16P Wire End Male Housing features a compact form factor with integrated locking tabs that engage firmly with the female mating connector, producing a positive lock that resists accidental disengagement from vibration, cable pulls, or thermal expansion and contraction cycles. The housing is molded from glass-filled nylon, providing superior dimensional stability and mechanical strength compared to unfilled grades, maintaining precise cavity alignment throughout the operating temperature range. Terminal cavities feature chamfered entry guides that direct crimped terminals into their correct positions during insertion, reducing assembly force and minimizing the risk of terminal deformation or damage to the contact plating. A polarization system molded into the housing exterior prevents reverse or off-center mating, protecting both the connector and the PCB header from insertion damage that could necessitate costly board-level repairs. Custom keying options are available to differentiate between connectors sharing the same cavity count but serving distinct circuit functions within the same equipment. The housing's thermal resistance allows it to withstand lead-free soldering and overmolding processes without dimensional change.

Application Scenarios

The 2.2 Pitch 16P Wire End Male Housing is deployed in automotive seat control modules, power window switch packs, and mirror adjustment circuits where a moderate number of signal and power conductors must be organized into a single connector assembly that can be easily disconnected for service access. Its sixteen positions accommodate the multi-function switch inputs and motor drive outputs typical of modern power seat systems with memory positioning, lumbar adjustment, and heating functions. Industrial conveyor systems and material handling equipment utilize this housing for connecting proximity sensors, emergency stop circuits, and motor control signals along distributed control networks that span the length of production lines. In commercial kitchen equipment, it links control panel interfaces to heating elements, temperature regulators, and safety interlock switches that must operate reliably in hot and humid environments. The male housing design provides a straightforward cable-side termination that mates securely with board-mount female headers, enabling clean and serviceable wire routing within equipment enclosures. Standardized cavity dimensions accept common crimp terminals, ensuring compatibility with established harness manufacturing processes.
