What this connector is
The 75160-132-16LF: Gold GXT contact plating at 30.0µin (0.76µm) thickness sits on a phosphor bronze base, giving this header better oxidation resistance and higher mating cycle durability than a standard tin-plated header. The 5 A per-contact current rating at 110 V covers signal and low-power duty comfortably — it's not a power connector, but it won't be the current-limiting element in most signal chains.
Build reality for the line
Packaged in a bag — no reel or tape option on this MPN. That matters if you're running a high-volume SMT or press-fit line where automation feed is a must. For prototype builds or lower-volume runs, bag packaging is routine. The thermoplastic housing is rated UL94 V-0, which satisfies most industrial flammability requirements without additional board-level shielding. Operating range of -65 to 130°C covers the full industrial temperature band, so thermal screening is not a constraint on this part.
