Molex 0469920830 Rectangular Connector Housing – Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0469920830 is an 8-position rectangular connector receptacle housing with 0.165" (4.20mm) pitch, designed for the Mini-Fit Jr Versa 46992 series. This component functions as a female socket housing for crimp-terminated contacts in free-hanging, in-line applications. The housing is manufactured from Polyamide (PA66) Nylon 6/6 material and operates across the temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.

The part is currently Active in product status with 3,571 units in stock. Equivalent and substitute housings are available from the same manufacturer (Molex) and alternative suppliers (Amphenol ICC/FCI) to accommodate design flexibility, color coding requirements, series compatibility, and packaging preferences.

Number of Positions: 8
Pitch: 0.165" (4.20mm)
Number of Rows: 2
Row Spacing: 0.165" (4.20mm)
Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
Contact Termination: Crimp
Fastening Type: Latch Lock
Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 105°C
Glow Wire Compliance: Yes
RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 or equivalent

Variable Parameters (Non-Critical for Substitution):

Housing Color
Connector Series
Insulation Material (PA66 vs. PA Nylon variants)
Packaging Format (Bag vs. Bulk)

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Same Series, Same Manufacturer):

The Molex 0469920820 (Red) and 0469920840 (Blue) are direct substitutes within the Mini-Fit Jr Versa 46992 series. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications with the 0469920830, differing only in housing color. These substitutes are recommended when color coding is required for circuit identification or when the primary part is unavailable. The 0469920820 offers the highest inventory availability (29,032 units).

Cross-Series Substitutes (Molex Alternative Series):

The Molex 1727080108 (Mini-Fit TPA2 172708 series, Black) and 2125141008 (Mini-Fit Max 212514 series, Black) are functionally equivalent substitutes from alternative Molex connector series. Both maintain all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The insulation material specification differs slightly (PA Nylon vs. PA66 Nylon 6/6), but both materials satisfy the operating temperature range and glow wire compliance requirements. These substitutes are suitable when series-specific design constraints do not apply.

Cross-Manufacturer Substitute:

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) 10127815-08LF (Minitek® Pwr 4.2 series, Natural) is a cross-manufacturer equivalent from an alternative supplier. This part maintains full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the 0469920830. The insulation material is PA66 Nylon 6/6, matching the primary part specification. RoHS compliance is confirmed. This substitute is appropriate for supply chain diversification or when Amphenol ICC components are preferred in the design.

Compliance Status:

All substitute parts carry ROHS3 or equivalent RoHS compliance certification and maintain REACH Unaffected status, ensuring regulatory compatibility with the primary part across all identified applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 0469920820 (Red) be used as a direct replacement for the 0469920830 (Green)?

A: Yes. The 0469920820 is electrically and mechanically identical to the 0469920830. The only difference is housing color. Substitution is valid unless the application requires specific color coding for circuit identification or design documentation.

Q: What is the difference between the Mini-Fit Jr Versa 46992 series and the Mini-Fit TPA2 172708 series?

A: Both series share identical electrical and mechanical specifications for 8-position, 4.20mm pitch receptacle housings. The series designation reflects different product lines within the Molex portfolio. The 1727080108 (Mini-Fit TPA2) is a valid substitute when cross-series compatibility is acceptable in the design.

Q: Is the Amphenol ICC 10127815-08LF compatible with Molex contacts?

A: The 10127815-08LF is a receptacle housing with identical position count, pitch, row spacing, and crimp termination specifications. Compatibility with specific contact types depends on the contact manufacturer and series. Verify contact compatibility with the connector supplier before final assembly.

Q: Does the insulation material difference between PA66 Nylon 6/6 and PA Nylon affect substitution?

A: Both materials meet the operating temperature range (-40°C to 105°C) and glow wire compliance requirements specified for the 0469920830. The material difference does not prevent electrical or mechanical substitution. Material selection may be driven by specific environmental or regulatory requirements in the application.

Q: What is the significance of packaging format (Bag vs. Bulk)?

A: Packaging format affects handling, storage, and inventory management but does not impact electrical or mechanical performance. The 1727080108 is supplied in Bulk packaging, while other substitutes use Bag packaging. Select based on procurement and assembly process requirements.

Q: Can I mix different substitute part numbers in the same assembly?

A: Yes. All identified substitutes are electrically and mechanically interchangeable. Mixing different part numbers in a single assembly is permissible from a technical standpoint. However, design documentation and bill of materials should reflect the specific part numbers used to maintain traceability and support field service operations.

Q: Which substitute offers the best inventory availability?

A: The Molex 0469920820 (Red, Mini-Fit Jr Versa 46992) has the highest inventory level at 29,032 units, followed by the Amphenol ICC 10127815-08LF at 3,708 units. Inventory levels should be verified at the time of procurement, as stock quantities are subject to change.
