Product Details

Product Features	Engineering Advantages	Customer Benefits
Integrated 6-Way Compartment	Organizes up to 6 separate circuits into a single, compact housing unit.	Clean Wire Management: Replaces messy individual insulated terminals with a neat, professional-grade block, reducing assembly errors and saving space in control panels.
High-Grade PA66 (Nylon 6/6)	Utilizes industrial-grade thermoplastic with high dielectric strength and heat resistance.	Electrical Safety Assurance: Provides a robust insulating barrier between 6.35mm tabs, preventing accidental short circuits and protecting operators from electric shock.
Free Hanging In-Line Design	Designed for versatile “wire-to-wire” connections without requiring fixed panel mounting.	Flexible Installation: Ideal for quick field repairs or modular wiring in home appliances and automotive harnesses where mounting space is limited.
0.250″ Standard Compatibility	Precision-engineered to fit all industry-standard .250 series (6.35mm) male tab terminals.	Universal Application: Ensures a perfect, rattle-free fit with existing Faston components, allowing for seamless integration into your current production line.

Q1: Does the 174204-1 come with the metal terminals included?

A: No, the 174204-1 is the housing only. You will need to purchase standard 0.250″ (6.35mm) male tab terminals separately to complete the assembly.

Q2: Can I use this housing for high-temperature appliance applications?

A: Yes, the housing is made of PA66 (Nylon 6/6), which is widely used in the appliance industry (like ovens and heaters) due to its excellent thermal stability and UL 94 rating.

Q3: What is the benefit of the 6-way configuration vs. 6 individual sleeves?

A: The 6-way housing prevents mis-wiring (by maintaining a fixed circuit order) and provides a much higher level of mechanical protection and isolation between circuits, which is critical for preventing short circuits in multi-wire power systems.
