6-Pin Shrouded Header for Board-to-Board and Cable
The contacts are gold-plated on the mating surface (15.0 µin) and tin-plated on the solder posts. This header is rated for surface-mount soldering and is housed in a UL94 V-0 glass-filled nylon insulator.
Pitch and Footprint for Board Layout
The contact mating length is 0.141" (3.60 mm), which defines the engagement depth with the mating receptacle. A board guide feature is included on the header to assist alignment during assembly, reducing the risk of pin damage in automated or manual placement.
Gold-Plated Contacts for Repeated Mating
The contact base is phosphor bronze, a standard spring alloy that maintains contact force over temperature and vibration.
It is ROHS3 compliant.
Position Count Comparison with Siblings
Within the same Milli-Grid 87832 series and identical plating (15.0 µin gold mating, 74.8 µin tin post), the 0878320420 offers 4 positions and the 0878320824 offers 8 positions. The 6-position 0878320620 sits between them for BOMs needing that circuit count.
