Equivalent & Substitute Parts for Molex 0334721536

Part Overview

The Molex 0334721536 is a 12-position rectangular connector receptacle housing designed for the MX150 33472 series. This component functions as a housing for female socket contacts with a 0.138" (3.50mm) pitch configuration, supporting two-row arrangements in free-hanging inline mounting applications. The part is currently active in production with 950 units in stock. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are maintained across the connector housing specifications, allowing for component interchangeability in applications where the core functional requirements remain constant.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Molex 0334721536 are identified based on strict equivalence of the following core parameters:

• Connector Type: Receptacle housing
• Contact Type: Female Socket
• Number of Positions: 12
• Pitch: 0.138" (3.50mm)
• Number of Rows: 2
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Contact Termination: Crimp
• Fastening Type: Latch Holder
• Features: Sealed
• Series: MX150 33472

The substitute part Molex 0334721207 maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters required for functional equivalence. Variations in color (Black versus Gray) and insulation material composition do not affect the core connector housing functionality, as these are cosmetic and material property differences that do not impact electrical performance or mechanical fit within the MX150 33472 series ecosystem.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Molex 0334721536 and Molex 0334721207 are active production components within the MX150 33472 rectangular connector series. Selection between these parts should be based on the following criteria:

Molex 0334721536 is specified when Black housing color is a design requirement or when Syndiotactic Polystyrene (SPS) glass-filled insulation material is mandated by application specifications.

Molex 0334721207 is specified when Gray housing color is acceptable or preferred, and when the polyamide (PA) nylon glass-filled insulation material composition meets application requirements. This substitute part carries RoHS3 compliance certification and REACH unaffected status, with defined operating temperature range of -40°C to 150°C and MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited). The substitute part maintains higher inventory availability at 4771 units.

Both parts are classified under ECCN EAR99 and are suitable for direct substitution in applications where housing color and insulation material variations do not impact system performance or regulatory compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0334721207 be used as a direct replacement for the Molex 0334721536?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications within the MX150 33472 series, including 12-position configuration, 0.138" (3.50mm) pitch, two-row arrangement, crimp termination, and latch holder fastening. The parts are functionally equivalent for connector housing applications.

Q: What are the differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are housing color (Black versus Gray) and insulation material composition. The 0334721536 uses Syndiotactic Polystyrene (SPS) glass-filled material, while the 0334721207 uses Polyamide (PA) nylon glass-filled material with SPS. The 0334721207 includes RoHS3 compliance certification and defined operating temperature specifications (-40°C to 150°C).

Q: Does the color difference affect connector performance?

A: No. Housing color is a cosmetic attribute that does not affect electrical performance, mechanical fit, or contact functionality within the MX150 33472 series.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 0334721536 is supplied in standard packaging, while the 0334721207 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Both are new original stock components.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection depends on specific design requirements. If Black housing is required, specify 0334721536. If Gray housing is acceptable and RoHS3 compliance is required, specify 0334721207. Both parts are active production components suitable for new applications.

Q: Are contacts included with these housing parts?

A: No. Both the 0334721536 and 0334721207 are housing components only. Contacts must be sourced separately and are not included with these parts.
