The power cord for a RadioShack 42-3067 xenon strobe got damaged very close to the appliance, so I need to replace it. I assume the connector on the end used to attach it to the PCB isn't reusable, so I'll need to get a new one.

Here's the part in question:

And here's what it attaches to on the board:

What's the name or part number of it?

    \$\begingroup\$ TE/AMP MTA series perhaps. Header looks like many others e.g. Molex KK, SPOX, depending on pitch, pin size, exact curve of the holding tab, etc. \$\endgroup\$

I assume the pitch is 3.96 mm.

My Identconn Identifies it as a plug for a Single-wall wire-to-board connectors, 3.96 mm, no latch, Insulation displacement.

Made by multiple manufacturers:

If the pitch is 2.54 mm, then it's this.

These are called “wire to board” plugs for single row heavy duty headers.

The connector is defined by : Pitch , square pin width, length and interlock may be vendor unique.

To me it looks closer to 0.2” or the std 5.08 mm.

Look for shell and socket terminals separately.
