The header is shrouded on all four sides (4-wall), protecting the male pins from bending during mating and preventing misalignment — especially useful when the connector is mated blind or in a harness assembly jig. Rated at 2 A per contact and 100 V, with a detent lock that provides a positive hold against cable pull and vibration. Operating temperature range is -25°C to 85°C, covering most indoor and outdoor commercial applications but not extended for engine-compartment heat. ## Board layout and mounting fit The right-angle orientation routes the connector parallel to the PCB, saving z-height in tight enclosures. The through-hole termination uses press-fit tails that provide mechanical retention before soldering; the solder joint carries the electrical connection. Contact length on the mating side is 0.130\" (3.30 mm), and the post length is 0.134\" (3.40 mm). Insulation height above the board is 0.189\" (4.80 mm), which sets the keep-out zone for adjacent components. ## Position count comparison within the PH series The S8B-PH-K-S sits between the 7-position S7B-PH-K-S(LF)(SN) and the 9-position S9B-PH-K-S(LF)(SN) in the same right-angle, shrouded, single-row PH family. If your BOM needs 8 positions, this is the direct fit.","metaTitle":"JST S8B-PH-K-S PH Series 8-Pin Header, 2mm Pitch","metaDescription":"JST S8B-PH-K-S PH series 8-position single-row header, 2.00 mm pitch, right-angle through-hole, shrouded 4-wall, detent lock, 2 A, 100 V, UL94 V-0, active","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"PH","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"ROHS3 Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Pin Headers, Sockets & Housings","Pin Headers"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"JST Sales America Inc.","Style":"Board to Cable/Wire","Series":"PH","Package":"Bulk","Features":"-","Shrouding":"Shrouded - 4 Wall","Termination":"Press-Fit, Solder","Applications":"-","Contact Type":"Male Pin","Contact Shape":"Square","Mounting Type":"Through Hole, Right Angle","Connector Type":"Header","Fastening Type":"Detent Lock","Number of Rows":"1","Pitch - Mating":"0.079\\\" (2.00mm)","Product Status":"Active","Voltage Rating":"100V","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Contact Material":"Brass","Insulation Color":"Natural","Insulation Height":"0.189\\\" (4.80mm)","Ingress Protection":"-","Base Product Number":"S8B-PH-K","Insulation Material":"Polyamide (PA66), Nylon 6/6","Number of Positions":"8","Row Spacing - Mating":"-","Contact Finish - Post":"Tin","Contact Length - Post":"0.134\\\" (3.40mm)","Current Rating (Amps)":"2A","Operating Temperature":"-25°C ~ 85°C","Mated Stacking Heights":"-","Overall Contact Length":"-","Contact Finish - Mating":"Tin","Contact Length - Mating":"0.130\\\" (3.30mm)","Number of Positions Loaded":"All","Material Flammability Rating":"UL94 V-0","Contact Finish Thickness - Post":"-","Contact Finish Thickness - Mating":"-"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$0.4300","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$0.43000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$0.36300","currency":"USD"},{"qty":100,"price":"$0.28210","currency":"USD"},{"qty":500,"price":"$0.24176","currency":"USD"},{"qty":1000,"price":"$0.20147","currency":"USD"},{"qty":5000,"price":"$0.17269","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10000,"price":"$0.16118","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/7bd85f82b1f1235708136b67b2386987.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Is S8B-PH-K-S shrouded?","answer":"Yes, it is a shrouded header with a 4-wall design.
