The FCI 92634-162HLF is a 62-position unshrouded male pin header from the BERGSTIK® II series, arranged in two rows on a standard 0.100" (2.54 mm) pitch with matching 0.100" row spacing. This is a through-hole, right-angle mount connector — the pins exit parallel to the board, which suits board-edge or mezzanine card applications where the mating axis runs parallel to the PCB plane. The 5 A per contact rating and 30 µ" gold mating finish put it in the signal-to-light-power range, with the gold plating providing the corrosion and wear margin for repeated mating cycles.
Pitch and footprint fit
The 0.100" pitch and row spacing are the industry-standard 2.54 mm grid — the same footprint as legacy BergStik and many other 0.100" headers. That means the board layout is a known quantity: two rows of 31 through-holes spaced 0.100" apart, with the right-angle bend putting the mating face at the board edge. The 0.318" mating pin length and 0.318" solder tail length give enough reach for a standard 0.062" board with a mating receptacle that has a 0.100"-deep cavity.
Contact plating and duty
The 30 µ" gold on the mating surface is a solid plating thickness — not a flash coat. For a header that may see multiple insertion cycles in a test fixture or a field-service card, that thickness buys you 200+ mating cycles before the gold wears through to the phosphor bronze base. The contact material itself is phosphor bronze, which has good spring properties for the square pin cross-section and resists stress relaxation at elevated temperatures.
Mounting and orientation
Right-angle through-hole mounting means the connector body sits upright on the board with the pins bent 90 degrees. The unshrouded design gives you access to the pins for probing or manual wiring, but offers no polarization keying — the mating receptacle must be aligned by the board layout or a separate alignment feature. The push-pull fastening type means no locking latch; retention comes from the friction fit of the pin in the receptacle contact.
Flammability and compliance
The black thermoplastic housing carries a UL94 V-0 flammability rating, which is the standard for equipment inside an enclosure where flame retardance is required. The connector is RoHS compliant per the manufacturer's specification.
Sourcing
The 92634-162HLF carries an Active lifecycle status from the manufacturer — no end-of-life notice, no last-time-buy window.
