480116-3 is a connector housing component manufactured from natural nylon resin by TE Connectivity, designed for use in household appliances and electronic equipment. The housing is engineered to maintain form, fit, and function despite natural color variations ranging from white to green or yellow, which occur due to the hygroscopic nature of nylon and heat stabilizer interactions with moisture. The material undergoes rigorous validation testing including contact retention force, insulation resistance, dielectric withstanding voltage, thermal cycling, and accelerated aging to ensure reliability. This product is particularly suited for high-volume appliance manufacturing where green, high-performance materials are required to meet modern consumer demands for safety and sustainability.
