It uses the standard 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, making it footprint-compatible with breadboard layouts and common IDC sockets. Rated 5A per contact with tin-plated phosphor bronze pins, it handles signal-level current in board-to-board or wire-to-board interconnect duty. The through-hole solder termination and 0.120" (3.05mm) post length suit standard PCB thicknesses and wave-solder assembly. Operating temperature spans -65°C to 125°C, and the UL94 V-0 black housing meets in-enclosure flammability requirements.
Fit and Sourcing
The 78511-406HLF is an active-production part with no end-of-life notice.
This header mates with any standard 0.100" pitch, 6-position, single-row receptacle housing (such as the BERGSTIK II female socket strips). The 0.318" (8.08mm) mating pin length provides adequate wipe length for reliable contact. Solder termination is through-hole; the 0.120" (3.05mm) post length fits standard 1.6mm PCBs with room for solder fillet.
