Features and Benefits

Secure mating and PCB retention for high-vibration applications

The robust series from Molex is a simple and efficient solution that provides quick and secure connections for high-vibration environments. The automotive-grade series features ISL, inertia lock and up to 100N retention force.

Offers space savings as one of the smallest connectors on the market for harsh environments

One of Molex’s highest-performing and largest derivatives, DuraClik ISL connectors are still among the smallest options on the market, helping solve space issues and reduce weight concerns.

Excellent Reliability in High-Heat Environments

DuraClik Wire-to-Board Connectors’ ambient temperature is -40 to +125°C, and the product maintains performance in high-heat applications such as lighting systems.

Meets LV214 Specifications

LV214 and ES91500-03 specifications are designed to meet the requirements of European, Chinese and U.S. automotive markets.

Inner positive lock:
• Provides secure mating and space savings
• Prevents latch breakage from wire tangling

Enclosed contact design:
• Protects contact against dust and debris
• Avoids tangling during harness assembly

Gold and Tin plating available:
Allows for crimp terminal variation

Overview

In wire-to-board applications, sometimes operators fail to ensure that connectors are fully mated. This can lead to end-product failure. DuraClik Connector System features a wide latch that provides clear audible click, ensuring a secure mate.

Rugged automotive and commercial applications can be subject to shock, vibration or rough handling that can dislodge terminals and cause signal interference. DuraClik Wire-to-Board Connector System features TPA and ISL which provides high retention force for improved reliability in rugged environments.

Customers choose different connectors from different vendors, this makes their procurement process complex and often causes compatibility issues. DuraClik Wire-to-Board Connector System is available in 2 to 15 circuits in single-row configuration with vertical and right-angle orientations. Furthermore, Molex has a wide range of connectors for almost all connector requirements in nearly all markets.

For some applications, consumer and automotive customers and OEMs request operating temperatures higher than 85°C. DuraClik Wire-to-Board Connectors can operate at up to
125°C
