It uses the industry-standard 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch on both rows and between rows, making it a direct footprint fit for the vast ecosystem of 0.100" ribbon cable receptacles, IDC sockets, and discrete wire housings. The through-hole termination and push-pull retention are straightforward for wave-solder assembly and manual insertion. Each contact is rated 5 A at the stated operating condition, with a voltage rating of 110 V. Overall contact length is 0.525" (13.34 mm), with a mating tail of 0.325" (8.26 mm) and a solder post of 0.100" (2.54 mm) — these dimensions define the board standoff and the through-hole depth needed for a flush mate.
Positioning in the BERGSTIK II Series
The key spec that sets it apart from a lower-position sibling (e.g., a 10- or 20-position variant at the same pitch) is the 26-circuit count — this matches a 26-conductor IDC cable or a 26-position receptacle housing. The 0.100" row spacing is identical across the series, so the footprint scales linearly with position count; the 26-position version simply extends the row length by the number of added positions times 0.100".
