Overview

The 1727049 is a 5-position PCB terminal block from the MKDS 1 series, featuring a 3.81mm pitch and a horizontal wire entry. It utilizes a screw connection with a tension sleeve to ensure secure, long-term contact for wires ranging from 16 to 30 AWG. This through-hole component is rated for 13.5A and up to 300V, providing a reliable power or signal interface in a compact footprint.

Why Choose This Part

The rising cage clamp design prevents damage to fine-stranded wires and maintains high contact pressure over time. Its narrow 3.81mm pitch allows for high-density wiring while maintaining a 300V UL rating, and the green PA housing is V0 flammability rated for safety.

Applications

Industrial Control Units
Reliable wire-to-board interface for PLC I/O modules and sensor distribution blocks.
