The Amphenol BERGSTIK® 75160-118-08LF is an 8-position, single-row, unshrouded male pin header on the standard 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch.
Rated 5 A per contact at 110 V — the 0.100" pitch limits current density when multiple adjacent pins are driven simultaneously, but a single circuit at 5 A is well within the contact's capability for moderate power distribution.
The 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch is breadboard-compatible — the footprint matches standard 0.100" header patterns. The 0.120" (3.05mm) solder post length is typical for through-hole soldering on standard 1.6mm PCBs. The 0.445" (11.30mm) overall contact length gives the header a low profile above the board.
Position count variants
The same BERGSTIK® form factor is available in 3 positions (75160-118-03LF) and 36 positions (75160-118-36LF), sharing the identical 0.100" pitch, single-row layout, gold GXT™ plating, and 5 A rating. The 8-position version sits between these extremes for medium circuit-count board-to-board connections where a full 36-position header would waste board space, but a 3-position is too few for the signal count.
