Features and Benefits

Molex SL (stackable linear) Connectors are a versatile product family suitable for an array of applications. These innovative solutions include a secure friction locking feature that helps ensure reliable connectivity across numerous wire-to-board and wire-to-wire configurations. The series is engineered with a 2.54mm pitch, efficiently combining compactness and ease of handling. This makes SL Connectors especially ideal for space-constrained applications that can’t afford to sacrifice performance.

This highly modular product series includes a variety of housings, crimp terminals and receptacles to support the creation of tailored configurations. Customers can choose from single- and dual-row versions, with single-row connectors spanning from 2 to 15 circuits and dual row connectors offering up to 36 circuits.

SL Connectors are designed for ease of use and peace of mind. The built-in polarization feature helps prevent incorrect mating — and a secure locking mechanism helps enable reliable performance in unpredictable or high-vibration environments.

Given all these advantages, SL Connectors are ideal for applications including consumer electronics, automotive, industrial controls and data communications. Their ability to support an array of wire gauges makes them equally suitable for signal and low-power applications.

Reduces the risk of terminal backout in high-vibration environments
Terminal position assurance (TPA) lock enhances peace of mind.

Allows for high-speed and more highly automated processes
Tape-and-reel packaging and optional pick-and-place vacuum caps boost production efficiency.

Supports design flexibility, with or without panel mounting
Low-profile, stackable housing and vertical or right-angle header options help enhance adaptability across applications.

Facilitates versatility with a range of wire connection options
Available termination styles include discrete wire crimp, flat flexible cable (FFC) and insulation displacement technology (IDT).

Decreases risk of disengagement in high-vibration environments
The connector position assurance (CPA) lock helps ensure consistent performance.

Enables more secure terminal retention
The positive-lock mating interface helps reduce risk of disengagement.

Provides long-term electrical performance and reliability
Terminals feature two independent points of contact.

Maintains header position on printed circuit board (PCB) during solder process
The split-peg PCB header option, also known as a snap pin, helps enhance mechanical strength.

Supports reflow soldering
The header is made with liquid crystal polymer (LCP) to withstand high temperatures.
