3-Pin BERGSTIK® II Header — Fit and Sizing
Choosing Between 3-Position Siblings
The closest alternative is the 68001-203HLF — same 3 positions, same pitch, same gold thickness, but with a shorter overall contact length of 0.450" (11.43 mm). If your board stack-up needs the extra 0.030" of pin length, stick with the 68002-203HLF. For higher mating cycle duty, the 68002-103HLF carries a 30.0 µin gold finish — double the thickness of this part. Same 3 positions, same pitch, same current rating. If the header sees frequent field-service unplugging, that extra gold buys more cycles before the contact frets. Need more circuits? The 68002-205HLF is the 5-position version of this same header — identical pitch, plating, and current rating.
