Molex 0432550113 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0432550113 is an active rectangular connector header designed for through-hole mounting applications. This 2-position, 0.250" (6.35mm) pitch connector features a shrouded 4-wall design with male pin contacts and solder termination. The component is specified for automotive, general purpose, and industrial applications. Substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when the primary part is unavailable or when design flexibility permits component interchange based on compatible electrical and mechanical parameters.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Molex 0432550113 with the Adam Tech DME-02-S-P-S is based on the following compatible parameters:

• Pitch - Mating: Both parts operate at 0.250" (6.35mm) pitch, ensuring mechanical compatibility with mating connectors
• Number of Positions: Both are 2-position connectors
• Mounting Type: Both use through-hole mounting
• Termination: Both employ solder termination
• Insulation Material: Both use Polyamide (PA66), Nylon 6/6
• Material Flammability Rating: Both meet UL94 V-2 specification
• RoHS Status: Both are ROHS3 compliant
• Product Status: Both are active products

The primary difference is the connector type: the Molex part is a header (male pin), while the Adam Tech part is a receptacle (female socket). This distinction means these parts are complementary rather than direct pin-for-pin replacements. Substitution is valid only in applications where the mating connector type is compatible with the substitute part's receptacle configuration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Molex 0432550113 and Adam Tech DME-02-S-P-S are active products with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, making them suitable for current design implementations. The Adam Tech part provides an alternative sourcing channel with higher inventory availability (2479 pcs vs. 992 pcs). Selection between these parts depends on the application's mating connector requirements: use the Molex header for applications requiring male pin contacts, or the Adam Tech receptacle for applications requiring female socket contacts. Both parts meet identical flammability and environmental compliance standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0432550113 and Adam Tech DME-02-S-P-S be used interchangeably?

A: These parts are not direct pin-for-pin replacements. The Molex part is a header with male pins, while the Adam Tech part is a receptacle with female sockets. They are complementary components designed to mate with opposite connector types. Substitution is valid only if your application's mating connector is compatible with the substitute part's contact configuration.

Q: What are the critical parameters for substitution compatibility?

A: The critical parameters are pitch (0.250" / 6.35mm), number of positions (2), mounting type (through-hole), and termination method (solder). Both parts match these specifications. Connector type (header vs. receptacle) and contact type (male vs. female) determine mating compatibility, not substitution eligibility.

Q: Are there any electrical rating differences between these parts?

A: The Adam Tech DME-02-S-P-S specifies a current rating of 13A and voltage rating of 600VAC. The Molex 0432550113 does not provide these electrical ratings in the available specifications. Verify that the Adam Tech electrical ratings meet or exceed your application requirements before substitution.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and meet UL94 V-2 flammability requirements. Both have MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) and identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these parts?

A: The Molex 0432550113 is supplied in trays, while the Adam Tech DME-02-S-P-S is supplied in bulk packaging. Verify that bulk packaging is acceptable for your procurement and assembly processes.
