MTA-100 IDC Connectors and Headers are for 2 through 28 positions, wire sizes of 22, 24, 26 and 28 AWG [0.4-0.08 mm2]. Connectors and headers (except shrouded headers) are end-to-end stackable. Connector styles include both closed end and feed-thru connectors with locking ramps, with and without polarizing tabs. Molded ribs on housing do not allow reverse mating. Posted connectors for 2 through 19 positions. Connectors preloaded with IDC contacts. All contacts are slotted for insulation displacement (IDC) terminal technique. Contacts are lubricated for fretting corrosion protection. MTA-100 system benefits include increased quality and ease of handling such as— one-step assembly, no wire stripping, no contact damage, reduced wiring errors, simpler tooling, simple maintenance and repair, meet material requirements.
