Contact Interface and Mating Cycle Life
The 89883-318LF: The phosphor bronze contact beam retains its spring force over temperature.
The base product number 89883 covers the family; the -318LF suffix specifies the 36-position, right-angle, gold-plated variant in a tube package.
Compliance and Material Ratings
The part is RoHS-compliant per the LF suffix designation. Applications listed include Automotive, General Purpose, Industrial, and Telecommunications — the V-0 rating and gold plating support these environments, though the push-pull retention means it is not suited for high-vibration automotive zones without a secondary locking mechanism.
