Rectangular Connectors – Housings

Rectangular connectors are an easy and efficient way to join two separate parts while allowing electrical or signal connections to be made. This type of connector is especially useful when working with tight spaces. Housings for rectangular connectors are usually made of high impact plastic or metal, but there are a variety of other materials available. Different sizes and styles of housings are available to provide various levels of contact security from plug-in to lock-on types. Most rectangular connectors have two sections, the housings and the contacts.

1. Housings

The housings are the outer shells of the rectangular connectors and are used to hold the contacts in place. The design and construction of the housing affect the durability of the connector. Housings are available in a range of sizes, styles and shapes and the most common materials used in their construction are plastic, metal and nylon. Plastic housings are most commonly used in consumer or commercial products, due to their cost-effectiveness and versatility. Metal housings provide higher levels of strength and corrosion resistance as well as increased electrical conductivity. Nylon housings are the most cost-effective but provide the least amount of protection against environmental exposure and mechanical stress.

2. Contacts

The contacts of rectangular connectors are the internal components that are used to join two pieces together. They are typically made from a corrosion resistant metal, such as copper or stainless steel, and have various configurations, such as single-wire, two-wire, four-wire, and multiple-wire contacts. Depending on the specific application, contacts can be soldered or crimped onto the wires attached to the housing before being inserted into the housing. Contacts may also be soldered to the connectors.

3. 1-172332-2 Application Field and Working Principle

The 1-172332-2 rectangular connector is a two-piece snap fit design and is used in a variety of applications, including automotive, medical, aerospace, and industrial. It\'s composed of a black polycarbonate housing with two integral locking tabs, and two silver-plated brass contacts with standard solder tails. The housing has a low profile design, which reduces its overall size and allows for a more streamlined installation than other rectangular connectors. It also features an internal locking mechanism which securely holds the contacts in place, providing a reliable connection and improved resistance against vibration or shock.When the two halves of the 1-172332-2 connector housing are mated, the two contacts on the female end slide into the two slots on the male end. As the two halves are pushed together, the spring-loaded internal locking mechanism engages, securing the two halves of the connector. This connection ensures a reliable connection between the two components when matched with the appropriate mating contacts. The contacts are also secured in place to provide additional protection from mechanical shock and vibration.The 1-172332-2 rectangular connector meets the requirements of the UL 94V-2 flammability rating and is rated for a maximum operating temperature of 105°C. This connector is highly reliable and can be used in a variety of applications, from consumer electronics to industrial equipment.

Conclusion

Rectangular connectors are an efficient and reliable way to join two components together while allowing electrical or signal connections to be made. Housings are used to hold the contacts in place and are available in a variety of sizes, styles and materials. The 1-172332-2 rectangular connector is a two-piece snap-fit design and is commonly used in automotive, medical, aerospace, and industrial applications. The connector features an internal locking mechanism which securely holds the contacts in place, providing a reliable connection and improved resistance against vibration or shock.
