Molex 0387206302 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0387206302 is a 2-circuit barrier block connector with 0.375" (9.53mm) pitch, designed for screw-based termination on the top and PC pin connections on the bottom. This Active product is rated for 15A at 300V and accommodates wire gauges from 14-22 AWG. The connector features dual-wall barrier construction with UL94 V-0 flammability rating and operates across -40°C to 100°C. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified when they maintain compatibility across critical electrical and mechanical parameters while meeting or exceeding the original specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

TE Connectivity NC6-P107-02: This substitute provides a direct functional upgrade with 20A current rating versus the original 15A, extended operating temperature to 105°C, and expanded wire gauge acceptance down to 12 AWG. The part maintains identical pitch, circuit count, termination methods, and barrier construction. RoHS compliance is confirmed. This part is suitable for applications requiring higher current capacity or extended thermal performance within the same form factor.

Curtis Industries T38110-02-0: This substitute also delivers 20A current rating and 105°C operating temperature with 12-22 AWG wire gauge compatibility. The part maintains all core mechanical and electrical specifications including pitch, circuit count, dual-wall barrier construction, and PC pin bottom termination. ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status are confirmed. This part supports both chassis/panel and through-hole mounting configurations, providing additional installation flexibility.

Both substitute parts are Active products with current certifications and meet or exceed all critical parameters of the original Molex 0387206302 terminal block connector.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity NC6-P107-02 be used as a direct replacement for the Molex 0387206302?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical pitch (0.375"), circuit count (2), termination methods (screw top, PC pin bottom), barrier construction (dual-wall), and voltage rating (300V). The TE part provides higher current capacity (20A vs 15A) and extended temperature range (-40°C to 105°C vs -40°C to 100°C), making it functionally compatible and electrically superior for the same application space.

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

A: Both TE Connectivity NC6-P107-02 and Curtis Industries T38110-02-0 meet the same core electrical and mechanical specifications. The Curtis part offers additional mounting flexibility with chassis/panel mounting options in addition to through-hole. Terminal screw finish differs (zinc clear chromate on TE vs nickel on Curtis). Insulation material also differs (polyamide/nylon on TE vs polypropylene on Curtis).

Q: Are there wire gauge compatibility considerations when substituting?

A: The original Molex part accepts 14-22 AWG wire. Both substitute parts accept 12-22 AWG, providing broader wire gauge compatibility. Applications using 12-13 AWG wire can only use the substitute parts, not the original Molex connector.

Q: Do the substitute parts maintain the same physical footprint?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical pitch spacing (0.375"), circuit count (2), and barrier block form factor. Physical footprint and PCB layout compatibility are maintained across all three parts.

Q: Are compliance certifications equivalent across all three parts?

A: All three parts carry UL94 V-0 flammability rating and are RoHS compliant. The Molex and Curtis parts are ROHS3 compliant specifically. All parts are rated for the same voltage (300V) and carry Active product status with current manufacturer support.
