Board-to-Board Header for Legacy Footprints
The Amphenol ICC 86832-456HLF is a 56-position (2x28) unshrouded male pin header from the BERGSTIK® II series, designed for board-to-board interconnect applications. It uses the standard 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch — the same footprint as legacy DIP packages and prototyping grids — making it a direct fit for many existing PCB layouts. The through-hole solder termination and push-pull fastening suit permanent or semi-permanent board stacking where the mating connector is a matching BERGSTIK II receptacle.
Key Ratings and What They Mean for Your Build
Rated 5 A per contact at 110 V, this header is sized for signal-level interconnects — think data lines, control signals, or low-power auxiliary rails — not a main power bus. The tin-on-tin contact interface (100.0 µin tin on the mating side, tin on the post) is adequate for a limited number of mating cycles; if your application requires frequent board swaps or field reconnections, consider a gold-plated variant in the same series to avoid contact fretting. The UL94 V-0 black housing meets the flame rating required for equipment inside an enclosure.
