Overview

The 796638-5 is a 5-position shrouded terminal block header from TE Connectivity's Euro Style series, featuring a 5.08mm (0.200 inch) pitch. This right-angle connector is designed for through-hole PCB mounting and provides a secure, 4-sided shrouded interface for mating with pluggable terminal blocks. It is rated for industrial-grade performance with a 15A current capacity and a 300V voltage rating.

Why Choose This Part

The 4-sided shroud design prevents misalignment and protects the male pins from damage during handling or mating. Its UL 94V-0 flammability rating and 105 degrees Celsius maximum operating temperature ensure reliability in demanding environments. The standard 5.08mm pitch and right-angle orientation allow for high-density board-to-wire configurations with easy access for maintenance.

Applications
