917728-1

The 917728-1 is an 8-position shrouded header from TE Connectivity designed for board-to-cable/wire connections. This single-row connector features a 2.50mm pitch, making it suitable for compact wire harness applications. The header is shrouded on all four walls, providing protection for the male square pins and guiding mating connectors into place. A latch holder ensures secure mating with compatible receptacles, and an integrated board guide aids in proper PCB placement.

The connector is rated for 3A current and 50V, making it appropriate for low-power signal and control circuits. Contacts are made of copper alloy with a tin finish, offering reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance. The insulator is glass-filled polyamide (PA66/Nylon 6/6) with a natural color and UL94 V-0 flammability rating, ensuring good thermal and mechanical performance.

Through-hole mounting with kinked pins provides stable mechanical retention during soldering. The overall contact length is 15.90mm, with a contact length of 4.70mm. The part is intended for vertical orientation on the PCB, with an insulation height of 15.29mm. These features make it suitable for use in automotive, industrial control, and consumer electronics where secure, compact wiring connections are required.
