72-Position Dual-Row Breakaway Header for Board-to-Board and Cable Interconnects
The Amphenol FCI BERGSTIK® 75844-222-72LF is a 72-position, dual-row unshrouded breakaway header on 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch — the standard grid for prototyping and production board-to-board or wire-to-board signal interconnects. All 72 positions are loaded, so you get the full pin count in a single through-hole solderable package.
Contact Plating and Environmental Range
The phosphor bronze base material provides good spring properties and conductivity.
The through-hole solder termination has a post length of 0.120" (3.05mm) for the solder tail, with an overall contact length of 0.525" (13.34mm) and a mating pin length of 0.305" (7.75mm).
Comparison Within the BERGSTIK Series
Within the BERGSTIK breakaway header family, the 75844-222-72LF sits as the 72-position dual-row variant. A common alternative is the 36-position dual-row version (e.g., 75844-222-36LF) at the same 0.100" pitch and 5 A rating — the only difference is the position count. For a BOM requiring fewer circuits, the 36-position variant saves board space and cost; for the full 72-circuit load, this part matches the pin count without needing to snap a longer strip.
