Molex 0307001241 Rectangular Connector Housing - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0307001241 is a 24-position rectangular connector housing designed for receptacle applications with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch spacing. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing system support and component procurement. The housing accommodates female socket contacts with crimp termination and features a terminal position lock (TPA) for secure contact retention. Substitute parts must maintain compatibility with the original electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and mounting requirements to ensure direct interchangeability in existing designs.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution compatibility for the Molex 0307001241 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Connector Type & Contact Configuration: Receptacle housing with female socket contacts
Position Count & Pitch: 24 positions at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch
Row Configuration: 2-row arrangement with 0.100" (2.54mm) row spacing
Termination Method: Crimp contact termination
Mounting & Fastening: Free hanging (in-line) mounting with latch holder fastening
Environmental Compliance: RoHS3 compliance and MSL rating

The substitute part Molex 0307001245 maintains the core electrical and mechanical specifications required for direct substitution: identical position count, pitch, row configuration, contact type, and termination method. Both parts belong to the H-DAC 64 30700 series and support the same contact interface standards.

Active Product Status: The 0307001245 maintains active production status, providing long-term availability and supply chain stability
Regulatory Compliance: Both parts meet ROHS3 compliance requirements and carry identical MSL ratings, ensuring equivalent environmental performance
Functional Equivalence: Matching position count, pitch, row configuration, contact type, and termination method confirm direct interchangeability
Temperature Performance: Identical operating temperature range (-40°C to 100°C) ensures equivalent thermal performance in target applications

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 0307001245 be used as a direct replacement for the 0307001241?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical position count (24), pitch (0.100"/2.54mm), row configuration (2 rows), contact type (female socket), and termination method (crimp). The 0307001245 is the active production equivalent of the obsolete 0307001241.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary difference is product status: the 0307001241 is obsolete, while the 0307001245 is active production. The 0307001245 uses thermoplastic insulation material versus the glass-filled SPS material in the 0307001241. Both maintain equivalent electrical and mechanical performance for the specified application.

Q: Are there any packaging differences?

A: The 0307001241 is supplied without specified packaging, while the 0307001245 is packaged in bags. This does not affect functional compatibility or performance.

Q: Do both parts support the same contact types?

A: Yes. Both housings accommodate female socket contacts with crimp termination and are compatible with the H-DAC 64 30700 series contact portfolio.

Q: What is the significance of the MSL rating for these connectors?

A: Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. These components can be stored and handled under standard conditions without special moisture control requirements.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry identical environmental certifications. No compliance differences exist between the two part numbers.
