Frequently Asked Questions
How many circuits does the Molex 44428-0401 connector support and is it RoHS compliant?
The Molex 44428-0401 is a 4-circuit wire-to-board connector that is fully RoHS compliant and lead-free, making it suitable for use in consumer electronics, automotive harnesses, and industrial equipment shipped to markets with strict environmental regulations restricting hazardous substances.
What is the factory lead time for the 44428-0401, and how should engineers plan procurement for volume production?
The factory lead time for the Molex 44428-0401 is 18 weeks from the manufacturer, which is significantly longer than many common connectors. Engineers planning volume production should place orders at least 5 to 6 months in advance or qualify an alternative 4-circuit connector from distributor stock to avoid production line stoppages caused by lead-time constraints.
What termination method does the 44428-0401 use, and what wire gauge range is typically supported?
The Molex 44428-0401 uses crimp-style contact termination, which is compatible with standard Molex crimp tooling and supports wire gauges typically ranging from 22 AWG to 26 AWG; this enables automated harness assembly with consistent contact insertion force and retention strength of at least 20 N per contact in wire-pull testing.
