Rectangular Connectors - Housings are an integral part of many electronics projects. One popular type of this type of connector is 178964-8. It has many applications across many different industries, and understanding its working principle is key to understanding how it can best be used.

178964-8 is a rectangular multipin connector with 8 positions. It is designed to support the connection of wire-to-wire, wire-to-board, board-to-board, and similar applications. It is commonly used in a variety of industries such as automotive, medical, aerospace, and telecommunications. With its 8 positions, the connector can support a wide range of connectors and can even be daisy-chained to increase the number of connections.

A key distinguishing feature of 178964-8 is its reliable connection capability. It is designed to withstand demanding operational conditions and also maintains good performance characteristics over time and in extreme temperatures. The connector incorporates a number of features such as integral latching mechanisms to help ensure secure connections, and also has octagonal grooves in the insulator body to improve the contact seals and reduce strain in wires.

The 178964-8 is a single-ended connector, meaning it works best when connected on one side. It is equipped with an anti-vibration locking mechanism for added stability to secure the connection during movement or vibration. The locking mechanism uses two small pins located between the connector contacts to securely hold the two connectors together. This reduces the chance of accidental disconnection due to vibration.

The contacts of the connector are also made to be corrosion resistant and are designed to tolerate up to 1.2A per contact in power systems. The material of the base contact is beryllium copper that is plated with a nickel-plated coating and the contacts are treated with an anti-cavitation plating for increased durability and improved shielding.

The 178964-8 is easy to assemble and comes with multiple keying options. It can be used with standard crimp tools or can be soldered with either hand soldering or robot soldering. It is also designed with wires entrances that are around .25 inches in diameter, or can also be cut to any specified size.

In conclusion, the 178964-8 is a reliable, versatile, and customizable rectangular multipin connector. It is suitable for many types of industrial applications and incorporates features that make it resistant to vibration, heat, and corrosion. It is also easy to assemble and maintain and can be used with many different keying options to suit various requirements.
