Universal, MATE-N-LOK cap and plug housings from TE Connectivity are now available in material meeting the glow wire test (GWT) requirement, according to IEC 60335-1 5th edition (750°C, without flame), as well as the requirements of UL 94 V-0. Based on the well-established 6.35 mm (0.25”) centerline pitch, these housings are compatible with standard, universal, MATE-N-LOK pins and sockets. Given that they meet both the GWT and V-0 requirements, these housings are targeted for use by manufacturers of appliances and other goods for the European and American markets.

The housings are offered with two-, three-, four-, five-, and ten-positions in a single row configuration. Additionally, there are two-row, six-position models; three-row, nine-position models; and four-row, twelve-position models. All are natural color, PA 66 material. The caps are designed for panel mounting, but can also be used in free-hanging applications.
