Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The Molex 0872641052 qualifies as a direct substitute for the 0872641050 based on the following critical parameters:

• Identical connector type (receptacle) and contact configuration (10 positions, female socket)
• Matching pitch and row spacing (0.079" / 2.00mm)
• Identical mounting method (through-hole, right-angle)
• Equivalent electrical ratings (1A current, 125VAC voltage)
• Matching operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C)
• Identical fastening mechanism (push-pull)
• Same series designation (Milli-Grid 87264)

The primary distinction is product status: the 0872641050 is obsolete, while the 0872641052 is active production. Both parts share the same base product number (87264) and maintain mechanical and electrical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Molex 0872641052 is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete 0872641050. Both parts maintain identical mechanical and electrical specifications within the Milli-Grid 87264 series. The 0872641052 is recommended for new designs and ongoing procurement due to its active production status.

The 0872641052 offers improved regulatory compliance, meeting ROHS3 requirements compared to the non-compliant status of the 0872641050. Both parts maintain equivalent environmental classifications (MSL 1, REACH Unaffected, EAR99). The post contact finish differs (tin versus tin-lead on the original), which reflects modern manufacturing standards while maintaining functional compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 0872641052 directly replace the 0872641050 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical pitch (0.079" / 2.00mm), row spacing, mounting configuration (through-hole right-angle), and electrical ratings (1A, 125VAC). The mechanical footprint and mating interface are equivalent, enabling direct substitution in PCB layouts and cable assemblies.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The 0872641050 is classified as obsolete. The 0872641052 is the active production equivalent from Molex, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts?

A: The 0872641052 meets ROHS3 compliance, while the 0872641050 is RoHS non-compliant. Both maintain REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 export classification. The post contact finish on the 0872641052 uses tin plating instead of tin-lead, reflecting current manufacturing standards.

Q: What is the packaging difference?

A: The 0872641052 is supplied in tube packaging. The original 0872641050 packaging specification is not provided in the technical data.

Q: Are the electrical and thermal specifications identical?

A: Yes. Both parts operate at 1A current rating, 125VAC voltage rating, and -55°C to 105°C temperature range. Operating characteristics are fully equivalent.

Q: Is the fastening mechanism the same?

A: Yes. Both connectors use push-pull fastening, ensuring identical mating and unmating procedures.
