Current and contact finish
In a 8-position header running all circuits, the total current through the connector is 24 A — but the per-contact limit is the ceiling; derate if the board ambient runs above 25 °C.
Available through independent distribution channels.
Position count vs siblings
This 8-position header sits between the 6-position 68001-106HLF and the 10-position 68001-110HLF in the same BERGSTIK® II series. A 6-position won't cover the extra two, and a 10-position leaves two pins unloaded — both are workable with depopulation but add a footprint mismatch.
