68466-426HLF

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) 68466-426HLF is a BergStik unshrouded header designed for board-to-board applications. It features 26 positions in a single row with a 2.54 mm pitch. The connector utilizes phosphor bronze male pins with tin over nickel plating and employs a straight solder termination method. Rated for 3 A current, it operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +125°C. The housing is constructed from black thermoplastic material compliant with UL 94 V-0 flammability standards.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• Provides reliable electrical interconnection through unshrouded pin headers.
• Ensures signal integrity via tin-plated phosphor bronze contacts.
• Facilitates secure PCB mounting using straight solder tail terminals.

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Board-to-board electrical connections
• General purpose circuit assembly
• Industrial control systems

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific RoHS compliance status and lead-free designation directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors before procurement. Confirm that the tin-over-nickel contact finish aligns with your assembly requirements. Ensure the straight solder termination profile matches your PCB layout constraints. Validate the operating temperature range against your environmental specifications. Request official datasheets to confirm current manufacturing status and availability.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-row, unshrouded header with a 2.54 mm pitch is required for board-to-board linking. Choose this part for applications needing a 3 A current rating and robust thermal stability up to 125°C. Opt for this model if tin-plated contacts are preferred for cost-effective general-purpose connectivity. Consider this series for standard industrial environments requiring UL 94 V-0 rated housings.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to the BergStik family produced by Amphenol ICC (formerly FCI). The brand specializes in high-reliability connectors for data communication and industrial markets. The 68466 series represents a standard line of board mount headers known for durability and consistent performance in electronic assemblies.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other 26-position, 2.54 mm pitch unshrouded headers from Amphenol or competitors. Verify identical mechanical dimensions, contact plating, and current ratings before substitution. Check for equivalent RoHS compliance and flammability ratings to ensure regulatory alignment.
