Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Molex 0334720806 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Connector type (Receptacle)
Contact type (Female Socket)
Number of positions (8)
Pitch specification (0.138" / 4.60mm)
Number of rows (2)
Mounting configuration (Free Hanging In-Line)
Contact termination method (Crimp)
Fastening mechanism (Latch Holder)
Feature set (CPA, Sealed)
Compliance certifications (ROHS3)

All substitute parts listed maintain these core electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in color (Black vs. Gray) and packaging format (Bulk) do not affect functional interchangeability. All substitute parts are classified as Active products with current manufacturing status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain reliability.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For applications currently using Molex 0334720806, direct substitution is supported by the following active alternatives:

Primary Recommendation: Molex 0334724806 provides identical electrical and mechanical specifications with matching black color and highest current inventory availability (8530 units). This part maintains full compatibility with existing connector systems and assembly processes.

Secondary Options: Parts 0334724906 (Black, 2294 units) and 0334724807 (Gray, 5975 units) offer equivalent functionality. Selection between black and gray variants depends on application-specific color requirements; both maintain identical electrical performance and mechanical fit.

Additional Alternatives: Parts 0334724881, 0334724907, and 0334724925 provide gray housing variants with active product status and ROHS3 compliance. These parts are suitable for applications where color specification is not a constraint.

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), ensuring compatibility with standard manufacturing and storage environments. Active product status guarantees continued availability and supply chain support.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I substitute the obsolete 0334720806 with any of the listed active parts?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical parameters: 8 positions, 4.60mm pitch, 2-row configuration, crimp termination, and latch fastening. Functional interchangeability is confirmed across all alternatives.

Q: What is the difference between black and gray housing variants?

A: Black variants (0334720806, 0334724806, 0334724906) and gray variants (0334724807, 0334724881, 0334724907, 0334724925) are electrically and mechanically identical. Color selection is determined by application requirements or design specifications only.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All substitute parts listed carry ROHS3 compliance certification, matching the compliance status of the original 0334720806.

Q: What does Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 mean?

A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates no moisture sensitivity restrictions. These parts can be stored and handled under standard industrial conditions without special moisture control requirements.

Q: Which substitute part has the highest inventory availability?

A: Molex 0334724806 has the highest current stock at 8530 units, providing optimal supply chain reliability for production requirements.

Q: Do all parts include contacts?

A: No. All parts in this series are housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and are not included with the housing purchase.

Q: Are there any differences in operating temperature range?

A: All active substitute parts operate across -40°C to 150°C. The original obsolete part does not specify operating temperature in available documentation.
