Key Features
- Rectangular power plug body (0.735 in × 0.39 in × 0.345 in) with tin-plated termination contacts rated for high-current power distribution in industrial wiring harnesses
- Pb-free, RoHS-compliant construction with tin (Sn) contact finish ensures compatibility with lead-free soldering processes and environmental regulations
- 7.6-year YTEOL and standard Molex manufacturing pipeline with 7-week factory lead time support long-duration industrial and server power system production runs
Applications
The Molex 43045-1028 is intended for power distribution interconnects in server power supplies, industrial control cabinets, and embedded computing platforms requiring reliable rectangular connector solutions. Its plug form factor with tin-plated contacts supports wire-to-board and wire-to-wire power connections in high-current harness assemblies used in motor drive auxiliary circuits and ATX/EPS power distribution. The standardized body dimensions allow it to mate with corresponding Molex 43025 series receptacles in compact power module designs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What connector series does Molex 43045-1028 belong to, and which receptacle does it mate with for power distribution assemblies?
The Molex 43045-1028 is a plug connector in the Molex Micro-Fit 3.0 family (43045 series), designed to mate with the 43025 series right-angle or vertical receptacle; the 0.735-inch body length accommodates the pin count needed for multi-rail DC power harnesses in server and industrial control applications.
What contact finish does 43045-1028 use, and how does this affect soldering process compatibility?
The 43045-1028 uses tin (Sn) plating on termination contacts, which is fully compatible with standard lead-free reflow and wave solder processes at temperatures up to approximately 250°C peak; the Pb-free body material and tin finish also satisfy RoHS and REACH environmental requirements without additional process engineering steps.
What are the body dimensions of 43045-1028, and how does this size fit within a compact server power harness layout?
The 43045-1028 plug body measures 0.735 inch (18.67 mm) long × 0.39 inch (9.91 mm) deep × 0.345 inch (8.76 mm) wide, a compact rectangular footprint that fits within standard 1U server and industrial DIN-rail cabinet wire harness routing channels while mating securely with Molex 43025-series receptacles on the PCB.
What is the production lead time and lifecycle outlook for 43045-1028 for multi-year industrial procurement planning?
The 43045-1028 carries a factory lead time of 7 weeks and a YTEOL (years to end-of-life) estimate of 7.6 years, providing stable supply availability for production programs running through the early 2030s without anticipated end-of-life part substitution—suitable for industrial control, server power, and embedded computing harness designs planned over multi-year production cycles.
