The Amphenol FCI 87185-429HLF is a 29-position unshrouded male header from the BERGSTIK® II series, built on the standard 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch that matches breadboard and DIP IC footprints. This single-row, through-hole solder header carries tin-plated phosphor bronze contacts rated 5 A per circuit at 110 V, with a 100.0 µ" (2.54 µm) tin mating finish. The black UL94 V-0 thermoplastic housing and push-pull fastening make it a straightforward board-to-board interconnect for low-cycle, cost-sensitive applications where the mating receptacle is aligned by the PCB layout rather than a shroud.
Deployment context
The unshrouded design means the header relies entirely on the PCB layout and the mating receptacle's alignment features to prevent mis-mating — there is no polarization key or shroud wall to block a reversed or offset plug. The through-hole solder termination and UL94 V-0 housing suit it for equipment inside an enclosure where flame rating is required, such as industrial control boards, test fixtures, or low-cost peripheral interconnects. The 0.095" (2.41mm) solder post length is short enough for standard 1.6 mm PCBs without bottom-side clearance issues.
