The 3-wall shrouding and friction lock reduce mis-mating risk in wire-to-board assemblies. Mates with JST EH series crimp housings (e.g., EHR-6). ## RoHS non-compliant – plan accordingly This part carries a RoHS non-compliant status. If your assembly requires RoHS exemption or a compliant alternate, the B5B-EH-A(LF)(SN) (5-position) and other (LF)(SN) suffix variants in the EH series are listed as tin-plated and RoHS-compliant. Confirm the position count and footprint before substituting. Housing material is PA66 (Nylon 6/6) rated UL94 V-0. ## Peer comparison – B7B-EH-A vs B6B-EH-A The B7B-EH-A is the 7-position sibling in the same EH series, same pitch (2.50 mm), same current rating (3 A), same shrouding and friction lock. The only parametric difference is position count: 7 circuits vs 6 circuits. Footprint and mating housing change accordingly.","metaTitle":"JST B6B-EH-A Header – 6 Pos 2.5mm Pitch, Friction Lock","metaDescription":"JST B6B-EH-A EH series header, 6 positions, 2.50mm pitch, shrouded-3 wall, friction lock, 3A/250V, UL94 V-0.
