Molex 0430202011 Rectangular Connector Plug Housing - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0430202011 is a 20-position rectangular connector plug housing from the Micro-Fit 3.0 43020 series. This component serves as the housing interface for male pin contacts in applications requiring a 0.118" (3.00mm) pitch configuration with dual-row arrangement. The part is actively manufactured and maintains full RoHS3 compliance with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the original specification, enabling component interchangeability in design and procurement workflows.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the Molex 0430202011 are identified based on strict equivalence of the following critical parameters:

• Connector type (Plug)
• Contact type (Male Pin)
• Number of positions (20)
• Pitch specification (0.118" / 3.00mm)
• Row configuration (2 rows with 0.118" spacing)
• Mounting method (Free Hanging In-Line)
• Termination method (Crimp)
• Fastening mechanism (Locking Ramp)
• Operating temperature range (-40°C to 105°C)
• Color (Black)
• Insulation material family (Polyamide/Nylon)

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) part 10127717-20LF meets all these criteria, representing a parametric equivalent from an alternative manufacturer within the rectangular connector housing category.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Molex 0430202011 and Amphenol ICC 10127717-20LF maintain active product status with full regulatory compliance. The Molex part carries RoHS3 certification, while the Amphenol ICC part carries RoHS compliance. Both parts achieve EAR99 export classification and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Selection between these parts should be based on supply chain availability, procurement lead times, and existing design qualification history with either manufacturer's connector series.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What determines if a rectangular connector housing can substitute for the Molex 0430202011?

A: Substitution requires matching all critical parameters: 20-position plug housing, male pin contact type, 0.118" (3.00mm) pitch, dual-row configuration with 0.118" row spacing, free hanging in-line mounting, crimp termination, locking ramp fastening, black color, polyamide/nylon insulation, and -40°C to 105°C operating range.

Q: Are the Molex and Amphenol ICC connector series physically interchangeable?

A: Both parts meet identical electrical and mechanical specifications for pitch, position count, row configuration, mounting type, and termination method. Physical interchangeability is determined by mating interface compatibility with the corresponding receptacle housing and contact set used in the application.

Q: What is the difference between Polyamide (PA) and Polyamide (PA66)?

A: Both are polyamide materials within the nylon family. PA66 (Nylon 6/6) is a specific polyamide variant. Both materials meet the operating temperature range and insulation requirements specified for this connector category.

Q: Does packaging type affect substitution eligibility?

A: Packaging type (Bulk versus Bag) does not affect electrical or mechanical substitution criteria. Packaging differences relate to inventory management and handling procedures only.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both parts?

A: Both parts achieve RoHS compliance, EAR99 export classification, and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. The Molex part carries RoHS3 certification specifically, while the Amphenol ICC part carries RoHS compliance.
