Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 1772560 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Contact Type: Pin configuration with crimp termination
• Wire Gauge Compatibility: The substitute must accommodate wire gauges within or overlapping the 16-18 AWG range
• Contact Finish: Material composition affecting electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance
• Series Compatibility: Phoenix Contact HEAVYCON® series connectors
• Termination Method: Crimp-style termination for consistent mechanical and electrical performance
• Environmental Compliance: RoHS and REACH certification status for regulatory requirements

The identified substitute part 1004365 shares the core functional characteristics of a stamped crimp pin contact within the Phoenix Contact heavy-duty connector portfolio, with wire gauge range overlap in the 14-16 AWG specification and active product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 1004365 substitute part is an active product with current manufacturing support and ROHS3 compliance, addressing the obsolescence status of the 1772560. Both components are stamped crimp pin contacts within the Phoenix Contact heavy-duty connector family, sharing identical termination methodology and pin configuration.

Wire gauge specification differences exist between the parts: the 1772560 accommodates 16-18 AWG conductors, while the 1004365 is rated for 14-16 AWG. The 16 AWG wire size falls within both specifications, establishing a functional overlap zone for substitution in applications using this conductor size.

Contact finish composition differs between silver (1772560) and nickel silver (1004365), which may affect electrical resistance and corrosion performance characteristics in specific environmental conditions. Both finishes are standard in heavy-duty connector applications.

Series designation changes from HEAVYCON® D to HEAVYCON® CK 1.6-ER, indicating connector housing compatibility must be verified during integration.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1004365 directly replace the 1772560 in all applications?

A: Direct substitution is limited to applications using 16 AWG wire, which falls within both the original 16-18 AWG and substitute 14-16 AWG specifications. Applications requiring 17-18 AWG conductors cannot use the 1004365 without conductor gauge modification.

Q: What is the significance of the contact finish difference between silver and nickel silver?

A: Contact finish affects electrical conductivity and oxidation resistance. Silver provides superior electrical properties, while nickel silver offers enhanced corrosion resistance in certain environments. Selection depends on specific application requirements and environmental exposure.

Q: Are both parts compatible with the same connector housings?

A: The parts belong to different HEAVYCON® series (D versus CK 1.6-ER). Housing compatibility must be verified with Phoenix Contact connector specifications before substitution.

Q: What does the obsolete status of the 1772560 mean for procurement?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production. The 1004365, with active product status, represents the current manufacturing alternative for equivalent functionality within the specified parameter overlap.

Q: Is the ROHS3 compliance of the 1004365 compatible with RoHS Compliant requirements?

A: ROHS3 represents an updated compliance standard that supersedes earlier RoHS requirements. Components meeting ROHS3 are compliant with original RoHS specifications.
