Molex 0353010650 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0353010650 is a rectangular connector header designed for through-hole mounting in board-to-cable/wire applications. This 6-position, single-row connector operates at 2.5mm pitch and features shrouded 4-wall construction with solder termination and detent lock fastening. The part is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent components essential for ongoing design support and procurement continuity.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Molex 0353010650 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Header)
• Contact type (Male Pin)
• Pitch specification (0.098" / 2.50mm)
• Number of positions (6)
• Number of rows (1)
• Mounting method (Through Hole)
• Shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 4 Wall)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Fastening mechanism (Detent Lock)
• Contact geometry (Circular)
• Insulation material composition (Polyamide PA66, Nylon 6/6, Glass Filled)
• Flammability compliance (UL94 V-0)
• RoHS compliance status (ROHS3 Compliant)

The Molex 0099990990 meets all these criteria and qualifies as a direct substitute. The primary distinction is product status: the original part is obsolete while the substitute is active, with higher inventory availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Molex 0099990990 is a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete 0353010650. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The substitute part maintains full compliance with ROHS3 and REACH requirements, with equivalent flammability certification (UL94 V-0) and moisture sensitivity classification.

The primary advantage of selecting the 0099990990 is active product status with substantially higher inventory availability (5893 pieces versus 899 pieces). This ensures long-term procurement viability and supply chain continuity for new designs and production runs.

Both parts are suitable for automotive, industrial, medical, and telecommunications applications where the specified electrical and mechanical characteristics are required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0099990990 be used as a direct replacement for the 0353010650?

A: Yes. The 0099990990 meets all electrical and mechanical specifications of the 0353010650, including pitch, position count, shrouding configuration, termination method, and fastening type. Both components are ROHS3 compliant with identical flammability ratings.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The 0353010650 is classified as obsolete, while the 0099990990 is an active product. The substitute part belongs to the Mini-SPOX 5267 series versus the original SPOX 35301 series, but functional parameters remain equivalent.

Q: Are there any packaging differences?

A: The original part has no specified packaging designation, while the substitute is supplied in bulk packaging. This does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both components are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification. Moisture sensitivity level is identical at MSL 1 (Unlimited).

Q: What applications are these connectors suitable for?

A: Both parts are rated for automotive, general purpose, industrial, medical, and telecommunications applications.
