Molex 0039011065 Rectangular Connector Housing - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0039011065 is a 6-position receptacle housing for rectangular connectors with a 0.156" (3.96mm) pitch, designed for crimp termination in the SPOX 5195 series. This part is classified as obsolete, making identification of suitable substitutes essential for ongoing system support and component procurement. The housing accommodates female socket contacts and features a detent lock fastening mechanism for secure mating connections.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Molex 0039011065 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type & Contact Configuration: Receptacle housing with female socket contacts
• Position Count & Pitch: 6 positions at 0.156" (3.96mm) spacing
• Series Compatibility: SPOX 5195 series
• Termination Method: Crimp contact termination
• Mounting Configuration: Free hanging, in-line orientation
• Compliance Standards: ROHS3 compliance and MSL rating

The substitute part Molex 0009501061 maintains full alignment with these parameters while offering active product status and improved availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Molex 0009501061 is the designated substitute for the obsolete 0039011065. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters: 6-position configuration, 0.156" pitch, SPOX 5195 series compatibility, crimp termination, and free-hanging mounting. Both achieve ROHS3 compliance and MSL rating 1.

The primary distinction is product status: 0009501061 is active with 6,663 units in stock, whereas 0039011065 is obsolete with limited remaining inventory. The fastening mechanism differs (locking ramp versus detent lock), but both provide secure mating functionality within the SPOX 5195 series framework.

For new designs or component replenishment, 0009501061 is the appropriate selection. For legacy system maintenance requiring exact mechanical interchangeability, compatibility with the existing fastening interface must be verified at the system level.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0009501061 directly replace the 0039011065 in existing assemblies?

A: Both parts share identical electrical specifications, position count, pitch, and series designation. The fastening mechanism differs (locking ramp versus detent lock), so mechanical compatibility with mating plugs must be confirmed for your specific application.

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant with MSL rating 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level). No compliance gaps exist between the original and substitute.

Q: Why is the 0039011065 listed as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence reflects Molex's discontinuation of this part number. The 0009501061 serves as the active replacement within the SPOX 5195 series, offering equivalent functionality with ongoing manufacturer support.

Q: What is the significance of the fastening type difference?

A: The original uses detent lock fastening; the substitute uses locking ramp fastening. Both mechanisms provide secure mating within the SPOX 5195 series. Verify compatibility with your existing plug connectors before implementation.

Q: Are contacts included with either housing?

A: No. Both the 0039011065 and 0009501061 are housings only. Contacts must be procured separately and crimped into the housing.

Q: What is the pitch specification, and why does it matter?

A: Both parts feature 0.156" (3.96mm) pitch, which defines the center-to-center spacing between contact positions. This specification must match your mating plug connector for proper alignment and electrical connection.
