It uses a 0.100" (2.54 mm) square-pin grid on both the row-to-row and pin-to-pin spacing, which is the standard footprint for legacy 0.100" IDC ribbon-cable receptacles and many wire-to-board housings. The phosphor bronze contact alloy provides a good spring-property balance for consistent normal force over the connector's service life.
This unshrouded header mates with any standard 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch IDC socket, female header, or crimp-housing receptacle that accepts 0.025" square pins — the BERGSTIK II is a universal male pin strip. For vibration-prone assemblies, a mating half with a friction lock or a separate board-mount retention feature is worth considering. The 0.090" (2.29 mm) solder-tail length is short — typical for through-hole soldering on a standard 0.062" (1.6 mm) PCB. If the board is thicker than 0.062", verify the tail protrusion is sufficient for a reliable solder fillet. All 24 positions are loaded; no option for selective population on this order code.
