Molex Mini-Fit TPA Headers and Wire Housing
Molex Mini-Fit TPA Headers and Wire Housings utilize a Terminal Position Assurance (TPA) pin that ensures that the terminals are fully sealed, preventing them from backing out of the housing. These headers and wire housings feature an optional Connector Position Assurance (CPA) key that ensures the male and female connectors do not accidentally disengage. The connectors are compatible with all standard Mini-Fit crimp terminals, further reducing design and qualification efforts without additional crimping tools. These headers and wire housings are available in wire-to-wire and wire-to-board configurations with circuit sizes ranging from 2-16AWG and accommodating 16-28AWG wire. Mini-Fit TPA is used in solar, vending, lighting, and medical applications.
