Molex Micro-Fit 3.0™ Dual Row (6 Circuits) Male & Female Receptacle Plug, w/Terminal sockets, (Pack of 3 Complete Set)

I purchased a height adjustable desk from Facebook marketplace which was missing a cable connecting two motors. With a combination of Cat6 ethernet cable and Molex Micro-fit 3.0, now I can adjust the desk height :) thank you for great product.

I was wiring up a 3d printer toolhead and needed small connectors, i could have bought from somewhere like digikey or mouser. But these were cheaper overall when you factor prime shipping. Also I purchased a microfit kit from elsewhere but it didn't have 6 pin 2x3 so ended up grabbing these. They were genuine and same as the ones that came in my kit quality wise. You'll need some crimpers with these. I used IWISS IWS-2820M AWG 28-20 crimpers (B078WNZ9FW) and all went well

the plugs themselves may be ok, but the pins are horrible.. Have no "spring" to them so when you insert them, they dont want to lock in place. Tried every which way to get them to insert, but it was just a total fight from the start.. would not suggest these. have used much smaller plugs and pins and never had these locking issues.

Works exactly as it should. Having been in the electronics assembly/repair business for over 35 years the only reason I can imagine for all the bad reviews is using the wrong crimp tool or not accurately loading the pins in the tool properly.

The tabs on the sides of the pins should spring outward in order to keep the pin from pulling back out of the connector, but the tabs have no spring to them. So once you push the pin into the connector the tabs flatten out and don't have any ability to hook into the inside of the connector. I may try to find better pins. A very frustrating process to find ultimately that the pins are not any good.
