Molex 0945360100 Quick Connect Female Crimp Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 0945360100 is a 0.187" (4.75mm) Quick Connect Female Crimp Connector designed for 16-24 AWG wire gauges. This non-insulated terminal features an angled 90° flag configuration for right-angle mounting applications. The part is classified as obsolete, making identification of suitable substitute components essential for ongoing design support and procurement continuity.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Molex 0945360100 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Tab width: 0.187" (4.75mm) — must match exactly for connector receptacle compatibility
Terminal type: Angled 90° flag configuration — required for right-angle mounting applications
Gender: Female — functional requirement for mating with male connectors
Termination method: Crimp — must support the same wire attachment process
Contact material: Brass — electrical and corrosion resistance baseline
Insulation type: Non-insulated — mechanical and electrical design constraint
Wire gauge compatibility: Must accommodate the 16-24 AWG range or a subset thereof

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part 175193-1 qualifies as a substitute based on these parameters. While the wire gauge range is narrower (16-22 AWG versus 16-24 AWG), this represents a compatible subset. Tab length and insulation diameter specifications show minor variations within acceptable mechanical tolerances for this connector class.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 175193-1 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete Molex 0945360100. Selection is supported by the following factors:

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, ensuring regulatory alignment for current manufacturing standards
The substitute part carries active product status with substantial inventory availability (32,300 pcs), providing procurement reliability
Critical mechanical parameters (tab width, thickness, terminal type, and mounting configuration) are identical
Wire gauge compatibility covers the 16-22 AWG subset of the original 16-24 AWG specification; applications using 16-22 AWG wire are fully supported
Contact material and insulation specifications are equivalent
The substitute's broader insulation diameter range (0.067" ~ 0.170") encompasses the original range (0.079" ~ 0.142"), providing enhanced accommodation for wire insulation variations

For applications requiring 23-24 AWG wire support, alternative evaluation may be necessary as the substitute part does not extend to these gauges.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 175193-1 be used as a direct replacement for the Molex 0945360100?

A: Yes, for applications using 16-22 AWG wire. The critical mechanical and electrical parameters are equivalent. Both parts feature identical tab width (0.187"), thickness (0.032"), terminal type (90° angled flag), and mounting configuration. The substitute is actively manufactured and stocked, providing superior availability compared to the obsolete Molex part.

Q: What is the significance of the wire gauge difference (16-24 AWG vs. 16-22 AWG)?

A: The substitute part supports a narrower wire gauge range. If your application exclusively uses 16-22 AWG wire, this presents no limitation. If 23-24 AWG wire is required, the substitute cannot accommodate these gauges and alternative components must be evaluated.

Q: Are the tab length differences (0.252" vs. 0.248") significant?

A: The 0.004" (0.10mm) difference falls within acceptable mechanical tolerances for this connector class and does not affect functional compatibility with standard receptacles designed for 0.187" tab width connectors.

Q: Does the substitute part have the same insulation diameter compatibility?

A: The substitute part has a broader insulation diameter range (0.067" ~ 0.170" versus 0.079" ~ 0.142"). This provides enhanced flexibility for wire insulation variations while maintaining full compatibility with the original specification range.

Q: What packaging format is available for the substitute part?

A: The TE Connectivity 175193-1 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging, suitable for automated assembly processes and component handling.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the Molex 0945360100 and TE Connectivity 175193-1 are ROHS3 compliant, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing.
