68033-132HLF

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The 68033-132HLF is a BergStik II series board connector manufactured by Amphenol ICC (FCI). It features a single row of 32 male pin contacts with a 0.100-inch (2.54mm) pitch. Designed for through-hole mounting, the header utilizes wire wrap termination methods to secure connections to printed circuit boards. The component employs a black thermoplastic insulator and phosphor bronze contacts with gold plating over nickel for the mating interface. It supports a current rating of 3A and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Single-row male header configuration designed for reliable board-to-board interconnects
• Wire wrap termination style ensures secure electrical connection to PCB traces
• Gold-over-nickel contact plating provides durable corrosion resistance and low contact impedance
• Black thermoplastic insulation offers UL94 V-0 flammability rating for safety compliance

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• High-density board-to-board signal routing in telecommunications equipment
• Interconnection modules within industrial control systems requiring robust wiring
• Signal distribution networks in data processing hardware infrastructure

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm the exact contact length and termination style required for your assembly. Confirm that the wire wrap termination method aligns with your manufacturing process capabilities. Check RoHS compliance status if restricted substances are prohibited in your supply chain. Ensure the single-row configuration matches your PCB footprint design constraints before finalizing orders.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-row, 32-position header with wire wrap termination is required. The 0.100-inch pitch suits standard density applications. Consider the 3A current rating and high-temperature tolerance for demanding environments. Verify that the male pin gender matches the intended female receptacle or cable assembly for proper mating compatibility.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the BergStik II product line, a widely used family of straight and right-angle headers from Amphenol ICC (FCI). The series is characterized by its versatility in pitch options and termination styles. The 68033-132HLF specifically addresses needs for single-row configurations, distinguishing it from multi-row variants within the same broader catalog structure.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 32-position count, 2.54mm pitch, single-row layout, and wire wrap termination. Generic equivalents may differ in contact material or insulation flammability ratings. Verify mechanical dimensions and mating force specifications to ensure interchangeability without redesigning the host PCB.

Headers, Male Pins FAQ

What is the contact termination method for this connector?

The 68033-132HLF uses a wire wrap termination style, which secures the connector to the PCB via wrapped wires rather than solder pins.

Is this connector suitable for high-vibration environments?

Yes, the wire wrap termination combined with the rigid thermoplastic housing provides stability against vibration, supporting operation up to +125°C.
