Molex 2000960101 Socket Contact Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 2000960101 is a rectangular connector socket contact designed for 22-24 AWG wire gauges with crimp termination and tin contact finish. This component is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent parts for ongoing procurement and design applications. The stAK50h 200096 series socket contact serves as a stamped contact element within rectangular connector assemblies.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Molex 2000960101 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Socket contact type (Pin or Socket designation)
• Crimp termination method
• Tin contact finish material
• Compatibility within the stAK50h 200096 series
• Wire gauge range accommodation (22-24 AWG or subset thereof)
• ROHS3 compliance and MSL rating equivalence

The identified substitute part maintains these core electrical and mechanical characteristics while offering active product status and improved procurement availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Molex 2000963101 serves as the active equivalent for the obsolete 2000960101. Both components maintain identical series designation, socket contact configuration, crimp termination, and tin finish specifications. Regulatory compliance is equivalent across ROHS3 and REACH certifications, with matching MSL ratings for moisture sensitivity.

The substitute part accommodates 22 AWG wire gauge, which falls within the 22-24 AWG range of the original part. Applications requiring 23-24 AWG wire gauge compatibility should be evaluated against the substitute's specified 22 AWG rating.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 2000963101 directly replace the 2000960101 in existing assemblies?

A: Both parts share identical series designation, socket contact type, crimp termination, and tin finish. Compatibility depends on wire gauge requirements. The substitute is rated for 22 AWG; verify that your application does not require 23-24 AWG accommodation.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The main part (2000960101) is obsolete with 22-24 AWG wire gauge range, while the substitute (2000963101) is active with 22 AWG specification. Both maintain equivalent electrical and mechanical characteristics within the stAK50h 200096 series.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the main part and substitute?

A: The main part packaging is unspecified in available data. The substitute is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging format.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry identical MSL ratings of 1 (Unlimited).

Q: What wire gauge applications are supported by the substitute?

A: The 2000963101 is specified for 22 AWG crimp termination. Confirm compatibility if your design requires 23-24 AWG wire gauge support.
