Product details

Gold GXT™ Mating Surface vs Tin Siblings

Compare that to the tin-plated 98401-402A12LF (same pitch, same 12 positions) where tin is good for maybe 50 cycles before oxidation raises contact resistance. The 95278-801A08LF (8-position, same gold GXT™) is a shorter sibling for lower-density layouts; the 95278-101A08LF upgrades to 30.0 µinch gold for even higher cycle life in field-service applications.

SMD Termination and Board Retention

No through-hole staking needed. Unshrouded means the male pins are exposed after mating — the mating half must provide the shroud or housing to protect the interface from accidental shorting.

RoHS compliant.

Frequently asked questions

What is the pin pitch of 98401-801A16LF?

0.100" (2.54 mm) — standard grid, compatible with most 0.100" pitch receptacles and perfboard.

Is 98401-801A16LF RoHS compliant?

Yes, RoHS compliant per the listing.

What is the closest functional second-source to 98401-801A16LF?

The 98401-402A12LF is a 12-position sibling in the same BERGSTIK® series with identical pitch and SMD termination, but its contacts are tin-plated rather than gold GXT™ — lower cycle life but same footprint for reduced pin count.
