Overview

The TE Connectivity 7-178136-2 is a 3-position, 5.08mm (0.2 in) centerline vertical PCB mount header designed for reliable wire-to-board connections in industrial and electronic applications. Part of the Dynamic 3000 Series, this fully shrouded header features gold-plated contacts for superior electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance, ensuring long-term signal integrity in demanding environments. Key specifications include a 5.08mm pitch, through-hole solder termination for robust mechanical and electrical performance, and a fully shrouded design to prevent misalignment during mating. The vertical mounting configuration optimizes PCB space utilization while maintaining secure connections under vibration and mechanical stress. This header is ideal for applications requiring high-density interconnect solutions, such as industrial control systems, telecommunications equipment, automotive electronics, and consumer devices. The gold plating (typically 0.76 µm minimum) provides excellent conductivity and resistance to oxidation, making it suitable for low-level signal applications and environments with temperature fluctuations or humidity exposure. The through-hole solder termination ensures a strong bond to the PCB, withstanding soldering temperatures up to 260°C (per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020). The fully shrouded housing protects against accidental short circuits and provides guided insertion for mating connectors. Compatible with standard 5.08mm pitch wire-to-board connectors, the 7-178136-2 supports currents up to 10A per contact (per TE Connectivity specifications) and voltages up to 250V AC/DC. Its compact design allows for dense PCB layouts without sacrificing reliability, making it a cost-effective solution for high-volume production environments. The header meets UL 94V-0 flammability ratings and is RoHS-compliant for global market access.
