Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Molex 0003061092 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Connector type (Receptacle)
  • Number of positions (9)
  • Pitch specification (0.145" / 3.68mm)
  • Row configuration (3 rows with 0.145" spacing)
  • Mounting method (Free Hanging In-Line)
  • Contact termination method (Crimp)
  • Fastening mechanism (Locking Ramp)
  • Insulation material compatibility (Polyamide/Nylon)
  • Color (Natural)
  • Operating temperature range capability
  • Regulatory compliance (RoHS, REACH, ECCN classification)

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part 770429-1 meets all substitution criteria as a manufacturer-recommended equivalent.
