MOLEX Micro-Fit 4-Way Housing - Male

There’s always something particularly awesome about soldering your own circuits together to create permanent joints and connections with molten metal, although sometimes, especially when creating circuit boards that need to connect up to other components within a system, you need to create semi-permanent connections that can be plugged in and unplugged at will. This is when you need to step up from solder to Headers & Sockets, which can be installed onto boards in order to connect with wiring assemblies to make your life as a Maker easier and more versatile.

These MOLEX Micro-Fit 4-Way Male Housings are designed specifically for the purpose of creating semi-permanent board-to-wire connections, and these units can be installed onto the ends of wiring so that you don’t need to solder the wires directly to the board, and you can plug and unplug the wiring whenever you need to. This is perfect for Components like controller boards, in which you may not want to install all of the different components directly onto the board, and instead would prefer to use breakout boards and other easily-replaceable parts that simply connect to the main board via simple wiring assemblies. This way, you don’t have to replace the entire system if one of the components breaks or gets worn, allowing for more versatile Electronics works and much easier repairs and maintenance.

Please Note: These units are priced individually but sold in minimum order quantities of five (5), so as to save on shipping costs and reduce the overall price for each unit.
