87185-109HLF

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) 87185-109HLF is a BergStik unshrouded header designed for board-to-board interconnections. It features a single row with 9 positions and a 2.54 mm pitch. The connector utilizes male pin contacts made of phosphor bronze, plated with gold over nickel. It is intended for through-hole mounting with a straight installation angle. The housing is constructed from black thermoplastic material rated UL 94 V-0. Electrical specifications include a current rating of 3 A and an insulation resistance of 5 GOhms. The operating temperature range spans from -65 C to +125 C.

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify the specific contact plating configuration against the official datasheet, as variations exist within the series. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead-free certification requirements prior to ordering. Ensure the selected variant matches the required mating height and tail length for the target assembly. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributor catalogs to confirm availability and current revision status.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, single-row header is required for dense board stacking. The 2.54 mm pitch offers standard spacing compatibility with common PCB layouts. Consider the unshrouded design if space constraints preclude shrouded alternatives. Verify that the 3 A current rating meets the circuit load requirements. Ensure the through-hole mounting method aligns with the manufacturing process capabilities.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This part belongs to the BergStik family of connectors from Amphenol FCI. The series provides various position counts and configurations for board-to-board applications. The 87185 prefix identifies the specific header style within the broader interconnect portfolio. Components in this line are engineered for high reliability in demanding environments.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include parts with identical mechanical dimensions but different position counts, such as 87185-104HLF or 87185-120HLF. Verify that any replacement maintains the 2.54 mm pitch and single-row configuration. Ensure electrical ratings and material specifications match the original design requirements.
