The Amphenol FCI (Amphenol FCI) 86832-410HLF is the 10-circuit dual-row member of the BERGSTIK II board-to-board header series, operating at 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) pitch with tin-plated male pin contacts rated 5 A per circuit at 110 V. The header is unshrouded, through-hole solder, push-pull fastening, and the insulation body carries a UL94 V-0 flammability rating — suited for internal board-to-board stacking in industrial and instrumentation applications where the dual-row footprint and 2.54 mm pitch remain the industry-standard grid for legacy through-hole designs.
Ratings that drive the fit decision
Pitch and row spacing are both 0.100 inch (2.54 mm), so the board footprint and routing lane spacing match the full BERGSTIK II series and any competing 0.100-inch dual-row header that adheres to the same grid — confirm the BOM calls for a through-hole header and not an SMT equivalent before committing. Current rating is 5 A per circuit. Tin-plated contacts throughout (100.0 µin (2.54 µm) mating finish per; same tin finish on the post per) — this is a signal-duty finish suited for multiple mating cycles in a board-to-board stacking role; the plating grade, not the headline current, governs long-term contact reliability at repeated reconnect. Insulation height is 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) and overall contact length is 0.525 inch (13.34 mm), with the post extending 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) beyond the board face and the mating pin 0.325 inch (8.26 mm) long — check the board thickness and z-height budget against these figures before locking the stack height. Voltage rating is 110 V — the mated stack height and pitch mean this header is designed for signal and low-power distribution within a board assembly, not for mains or high-voltage bus work.
What it mates with
The 86832-410HLF is a male pin header — it mates with the matching BERGSTIK II dual-row receptacle or female IDC connector housing that accepts a 0.100-inch grid. Confirm the housing's position count (10) and row configuration (2) match before ordering the mating half. The push-pull fastening type means the header-to-housing engagement relies on contact friction and header body geometry rather than a separate screw-lock or latch — suitable for stable board-stack environments but verify vibration class if the assembly is going into a high-vibration zone. Contact material is phosphor bronze, square pin shape — the square cross-section provides rotational stability in the through-hole barrel during insertion and solder reflow. Packaged in a bag; no tape-and-reel or tube option is listed — for automated insertion or high-volume assembly, confirm the distributor can supply in the orientation your pick-and-place tooling expects, or factor manual insertion.
Sourcing
The series base number is 86832, and BERGSTIK II covers a wide position-count range (single and dual row) in the same 2.54 mm pitch — if the BOM circuit count changes, a higher or lower position-count sibling in the same series is the first candidate to cross-check for footprint compatibility.
