172137-1 is a connector housing component manufactured from natural nylon resin by TE Connectivity for use in major household appliances and white goods. The housing exhibits natural color variation ranging from white to green or yellow due to the hygroscopic nature of the nylon resin and the presence of copper-ion-based heat stabilizers. Color changes occur as a result of moisture absorption and storage conditions over time, with possible discoloration to green, yellow, or dark white. Despite these natural color variations, the product maintains its Form, Fit, and Function as validated through comprehensive testing including contact retention force, insulation resistance, dielectric withstanding voltage, thermal cycling, and durability assessments. This material choice supports the growing demand for high-safety-performance components in green appliances while meeting ISO 9001 and ISO/TS 16949 quality standards.
