It uses the standard 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch on both rows and between rows, making it footprint-compatible with the broad ecosystem of 0.100" ribbon cable IDC connectors and legacy board-to-board layouts. The through-hole termination and 0.120" (3.05mm) solder post length suit it for hand-solder or wave-solder assembly on standard 1/16" PCBs.
Key Specs and Fit
Rated 5A per contact at 110V, with 30.0µin (0.76µm) gold plating on the mating surface — that gold thickness supports repeated mating cycles without exposing the phosphor bronze base metal, so it holds up in field-service or test-fixture duty where the connector sees more than a handful of mates. The 0.380" (9.65mm) mating pin length gives enough reach to engage with standard 0.100" pitch receptacle housings, including shrouded box headers and IDC sockets. The 0.600" (15.24mm) overall pin length includes the 0.120" (3.05mm) solder tail — confirm the board thickness and through-hole diameter before committing the footprint.
This unshrouded header mates with any standard 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch receptacle that accepts 0.025" square pins — common mates include FCI BERGSTIK II socket strips, 3M IDC sockets, and generic 0.100" crimp housings.
