The FCI 68705-105HLF is a 5-position, single-row unshrouded header from the BERGSTIK® II series. It uses 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, through-hole solder termination, and male square pins with a 30.0µin gold or Gold, GXT™ mating finish. Rated 5A per contact at 110V, it's a standard board-to-board interconnect for signal and light power duty on a 0.100" grid footprint.
Key Specs and What They Mean for Fit
The 5 positions match a 5-circuit BOM line exactly — no unloaded positions on this variant. The 0.100" pitch is the legacy 2.54mm grid, so it drops into any standard perf-board or PCB layout designed for that spacing. The 30.0µin gold on the mating surface gives this header a solid mating-cycle budget for field-service or repeated connect/disconnect; the phosphor bronze base resists contact fretting under vibration. Rated 5A per contact at 110V, this is a signal-grade header that can handle light power distribution — think control logic, sensor inputs, or low-current board interconnects. The unshrouded design means the pins are exposed after mating, so the mating receptacle needs to provide its own polarization or keying if mis-mate protection is required. The UL94 V-0 black insulation housing meets the flame rating required for equipment inside an enclosure. Overall contact length is 0.395" with a 0.200" mating length and 0.095" solder post — the post length suits standard 0.062" PCBs with room for through-hole solder fillets.
