Product details

The housing is molded from UL94 V-0 rated PA66 (Nylon 6/6), which meets the flammability requirement for equipment inside an enclosure. The contacts are brass with tin finish. Note that this part is RoHS non-compliant, which is a critical consideration for any BOM destined for markets with RoHS restrictions.

Against the B5P-VH-B, the only difference is color — the -B suffix denotes a black housing versus the natural (uncolored) PA66 of the B5P-VH. Functionally, they are identical: same pitch, current, voltage, and footprint. The B5PS-VH is the right-angle version of the same 5-position header, used when the board edge requires a parallel-to-PCB orientation. For one more circuit, the B6P-VH offers 6 positions at the same 3.96 mm pitch and 10 A rating, which is the natural choice if the harness requires an additional power line.

Frequently asked questions

What is the pitch and position count of the B5P-VH?

The B5P-VH is a 5-position, single-row header with a 0.156" (3.96 mm) pitch.

Is the B5P-VH RoHS compliant?

No, the B5P-VH is listed as RoHS non-compliant, which is a critical factor for BOMs destined for regulated markets.

What is the current and voltage rating of the B5P-VH?

The B5P-VH is rated at 10 A per contact and 250 V, making it suitable for power distribution applications.

What is the difference between B5P-VH and B5P-VH-B?

The B5P-VH-B is functionally identical to the B5P-VH; the only difference is the housing color — black vs. natural. They share the same pitch, current, voltage, and footprint.

Where can I buy the B5P-VH and how is it quoted?

The B5P-VH is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at the time of quote.
