  • Ease of handling for space-constrained applications
  • Modular design for tailored configurations
  • Available in single- and dual-row versions, supporting 2 to 15 circuits in single-row and up to 36 circuits in dual-row
  • Built-in polarization
  • Durable locking mechanism
  • Versatile compatibility

Description

Molex SL (Stackable Linear) Connectors offer versatile solutions for a range of applications, providing secure connectivity with a 2.54mm pitch. Ideal for compact, space-limited designs, SL Connectors come with a friction lock feature, supporting both wire-to-board and wire-to-wire configurations.

This modular series includes multiple housing and crimp terminal options, available in single-row (2-15 circuits) and dual-row (up to 36 circuits) versions, allowing for custom configurations. Polarization features help prevent mismating, while a secure locking mechanism ensures stable performance even in high-vibration settings.

SL Connectors are widely used in consumer electronics, automotive, industrial controls, and data communications, making them suitable for both signal and low-power applications.
