TE Connectivity 104074-1 Rectangular Connector Header Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity 104074-1 is a shrouded rectangular connector header designed for through-hole, right-angle board-to-board or cable applications. This 10-position connector operates within the AMPMODU System 50 series and maintains an active product status. The connector features a 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch with gold-plated mating contacts and tin-lead plated posts, suitable for automotive, general purpose, medical, and telecommunications applications. Substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution between the main part 104074-1 and the alternative part 5-104074-1 is based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. Both parts share identical specifications across all critical dimensions and functional characteristics: 10-position configuration, 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch, through-hole right-angle mounting, shrouded 2-wall design, circular contact shape, and operating temperature range of -65°C to 105°C. Both connectors maintain 30VAC voltage rating and UL94 V-0 flammability compliance.

The key parameters determining substitution eligibility are:

• Connector type and contact type (Header, Male Pin)
• Number of positions and row configuration (10 positions, 1 row)
• Pitch specification (0.050" / 1.27mm)
• Mounting style and orientation (Through Hole, Right Angle)
• Shrouding configuration (Shrouded - 2 Wall)
• Contact dimensions (Mating length 0.125", Post length 0.100")
• Insulation height (0.190")
• Operating temperature range (-65°C ~ 105°C)
• Voltage rating (30VAC)
• Flammability rating (UL94 V-0)

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both 104074-1 and 5-104074-1 maintain active product status and are suitable for direct substitution in applications requiring 10-position rectangular connector headers with 0.050" (1.27mm) pitch and right-angle through-hole mounting. Both parts comply with UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and operate across the -65°C to 105°C temperature range.

The primary distinction between these parts is the post contact finish specification. The 104074-1 features tin-lead plating on the post contacts, while the 5-104074-1 features tin plating. The 5-104074-1 carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, whereas the 104074-1 is not applicable for RoHS and carries REACH Affected status. Both parts maintain identical mating contact finish (gold) and equivalent contact finish thicknesses.

Selection between these parts should be based on regulatory compliance requirements specific to the application. The 5-104074-1 is appropriate for applications requiring RoHS3 compliance. Both parts are suitable for automotive, general purpose, medical, and telecommunications applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 5-104074-1 be used as a direct replacement for 104074-1?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications including connector type, position count, pitch, mounting configuration, and operating parameters. The primary difference is the post contact finish material (tin versus tin-lead) and regulatory compliance status.

Q: What is the significance of the contact finish difference between these parts?

A: The 104074-1 uses tin-lead plating on post contacts, while the 5-104074-1 uses tin plating. Both maintain the same contact finish thickness (150.0µin / 3.81µm) and mating contact finish (gold at 30.0µin / 0.76µm). The tin-lead formulation in 104074-1 provides different soldering characteristics compared to the tin-only finish in 5-104074-1.

Q: Are there RoHS compliance differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The 5-104074-1 is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected. The 104074-1 is not applicable for RoHS and carries REACH Affected status. Applications requiring RoHS3 compliance should specify the 5-104074-1.

Q: Do both parts support the same mounting and termination methods?

A: Yes. Both parts are through-hole, right-angle mounted connectors with solder termination and latch holder fastening. Both feature shrouded 2-wall design with board guide features.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these connectors?

A: Both parts operate across -65°C to 105°C, suitable for automotive, medical, and telecommunications applications requiring extended temperature performance.

Q: Are the contact dimensions identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical mating contact length (0.125" / 3.18mm), post contact length (0.100" / 2.54mm), and insulation height (0.190" / 4.83mm).

Q: What voltage rating applies to these connectors?

A: Both parts are rated for 30VAC operation and comply with UL94 V-0 flammability requirements.

Q: Are inventory levels a consideration for part selection?

A: The 5-104074-1 maintains higher inventory availability (4085 pieces) compared to the 104074-1 (934 pieces). Both are listed as new original stock.
