Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Molex Equivalent: The Molex 0702464002 is the primary equivalent for the obsolete 0702464022. Both share the C-Grid 70246 series designation and identical mechanical and electrical interfaces. The 0702464002 is active in production with ROHS3 compliance, making it the preferred choice for new designs and legacy system updates.

TE Connectivity AMP-Latch Series: Parts 103308-8, 103309-8, 5103308-8, 5103309-8, and 5104338-8 provide cross-manufacturer compatibility. The 5103308-8 and 5103309-8 offer ROHS3 compliance with active product status. The 5104338-8 includes kinked pin termination for enhanced mechanical retention. All TE Connectivity options feature extended operating temperature range (-65°C to 105°C) and 1A per contact current rating.

3M 303 Series: The 3M 30340-6002HB delivers ROHS3 compliance and active product status with -55°C to 105°C operating temperature range and 1A current rating. This option provides an alternative from a different manufacturer ecosystem.

Amphenol ICC Quickie™ Series: The 52601-G40-4LF and 52601-S40-4LF offer RoHS compliance with active product status. These parts feature phosphor bronze contacts and are available in tray packaging. The primary distinction between these two is contact finish thickness on the mating surface (30.0µin vs. 15.0µin).

Samtec Flex Stack HTST Series: The HTST-120-02-FM-D provides the highest operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C) and highest current rating (3.4A per contact) among all substitutes. This option is suitable for applications requiring enhanced thermal performance. Note the natural insulation color differs from the black standard.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use the Molex 0702464002 as a direct replacement for the 0702464022? A: Yes. Both parts share identical mechanical and electrical specifications within the C-Grid 70246 series. The 0702464002 is the active production equivalent and is the recommended choice for obsolete part replacement.

Q: What are the key differences between TE Connectivity and Molex options? A: TE Connectivity parts (103308-8, 103309-8, 5103308-8, 5103309-8, 5104338-8) use brass contacts versus phosphor bronze in Molex designs. TE parts feature extended operating temperature (-65°C to 105°C) and specified current ratings (1A per contact). Contact finish specifications vary between parts. All maintain identical pitch, position count, and shrouding.

Q: Are there compliance differences I should consider? A: The original 0702464022 is RoHS non-compliant. Active substitutes include ROHS3-compliant options (0702464002, 30340-6002HB, 5103308-8, 5103309-8, HTST-120-02-FM-D) and RoHS-compliant options (5104338-8, 52601-G40-4LF, 52601-S40-4LF). Select based on your application's regulatory requirements.

Q: What packaging options are available? A: Molex 0702464002 is supplied in bulk. TE Connectivity parts are available in tube or bulk packaging. 3M 30340-6002HB is bulk. Amphenol ICC parts are supplied in trays. Samtec HTST-120-02-FM-D packaging is not specified. Verify packaging compatibility with your procurement and assembly processes.

Q: Does the Samtec HTST-120-02-FM-D have any compatibility considerations? A: The HTST-120-02-FM-D features natural insulation color instead of black and includes kinked pin termination for enhanced mechanical retention. It provides superior thermal performance (operating to 125°C) and higher current capacity (3.4A per contact). Verify mechanical fit in your application before selection.

Q: How do contact finish specifications affect part selection? A: Contact finish thickness varies across substitutes. The original 0702464022 specifies 30.0µin (0.76µm) mating finish with tin-lead post finish. Substitutes maintain similar specifications with minor variations. Gold or gold-palladium mating finishes in TE parts provide equivalent corrosion resistance. Post finish variations (tin vs. tin-lead) do not affect electrical performance in standard applications.

Q: Can I mix different substitute parts in the same assembly? A: All listed substitutes maintain identical pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm), position count (40), row spacing (0.100" / 2.54mm), and shrouding (4-wall). Mechanical interchangeability is confirmed. However, verify contact finish compatibility and current rating requirements for your specific circuit design before mixing manufacturers.
