The FCI 68022-208HLF is an 8-position, dual-row male header from the BERGSTIK® II series. It uses the standard 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch on both rows and between rows, so the footprint matches any 0.100" grid board layout. Rated 5 A per contact with a 110 V voltage rating, it handles moderate power or signal duty. The right-angle through-hole termination keeps the pins parallel to the board — useful for edge-mount or mezzanine-style stacking where a vertical header won't fit. Mating surface is gold over 15.0 µinch (0.38 µm) thickness, backed by phosphor bronze contacts. The housing is rated UL94 V-0.
This header is unshrouded (no housing wall around the pins) with a push-pull fastening type — it mates with any standard 0.100" pitch BergStik receptacle or IDC socket, no latch required. The 0.318" (8.08 mm) mating pin length provides enough engagement for standard socket depths. For field replacement, the through-hole solder termination means you can desolder and swap the header on site with basic tools — no special crimp tool needed. The 15 µinch gold plating handles repeated mating cycles well.
