Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 2-1355200-1 are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the MCP series rectangular connector family. The substitution logic is based on the following critical parameters that must remain constant across all equivalent parts:

Mandatory Equivalence Parameters:

• Connector Type: Receptacle
• Contact Type: Female Socket
• Number of Positions: 2
• Pitch: 0.236" (6.00mm)
• Number of Rows: 1
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Contact Termination: Crimp
• Fastening Type: Latch Holder
• Operating Temperature Range: -30°C ~ 100°C
• Series: MCP
• Product Status: Active

Variable Parameters (Allowed to Differ):

• Color (Natural, Black, or Blue)
• Insulation Material composition (Polyamide PA or PA66 variants)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level classification
• REACH Status designation
• HTSUS classification

All substitute parts maintain identical electrical performance and mechanical interface compatibility with the main part number while differing only in housing color and material specification details.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All four part numbers (2-1355200-1, 1-1355200-1, 2-1355200-2, and 3-1355200-1) are active products from TE Connectivity AMP Connectors and maintain full electrical and mechanical compatibility within the MCP series rectangular connector platform. Selection between these parts is determined by application-specific requirements rather than performance differences.

Selection Criteria Based on Provided Data:

2-1355200-1 (Natural Color): Select this part number when natural housing color is specified in the design documentation. ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating apply. Current inventory: 1955 pieces.

1-1355200-1 (Black Color): Select this part number when black housing color is required. ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating apply. Highest inventory availability at 685,100 pieces supports applications with high-volume production requirements.

2-1355200-2 (Black Color): Select this part number as an alternative black housing option. RoHS compliant status applies. Inventory: 4024 pieces.

3-1355200-1 (Blue Color): Select this part number when blue housing color is specified. ROHS3 compliance applies. Insulation material specified as PA66 (Nylon 6/6) versus PA (Nylon) in other variants. MSL classification listed as Not Applicable. Inventory: 1616 pieces.

All parts share identical electrical performance characteristics, mechanical interface dimensions, and operating temperature specifications. Color selection and material composition variations do not affect functional compatibility with mating connector components or contact assemblies.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are all substitute part numbers electrically identical to the main part 2-1355200-1?

A: Yes. All substitute parts (1-1355200-1, 2-1355200-2, and 3-1355200-1) maintain identical electrical specifications including connector type, contact type, number of positions, pitch, mounting configuration, and operating temperature range. Electrical performance is equivalent across all part numbers.

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

A: The primary differences are housing color (Natural, Black, or Blue) and insulation material composition. The 3-1355200-1 specifies PA66 (Nylon 6/6) insulation material, while 2-1355200-1, 1-1355200-1, and 2-1355200-2 specify PA (Nylon) insulation material. These material variations do not affect mechanical or electrical compatibility.

Q: Can I use a black housing part (1-1355200-1 or 2-1355200-2) as a direct replacement for the natural housing part (2-1355200-1)?

A: From an electrical and mechanical standpoint, yes. Both black housing options are functionally equivalent. However, color-coded connector systems may require the natural housing specification for circuit identification purposes. Verify color requirements in your application documentation before substitution.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) mean, and how does it affect part selection?

A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates that the component has unlimited shelf life and does not require special moisture-controlled storage conditions. The 3-1355200-1 lists MSL as Not Applicable, which indicates this classification does not apply to that variant. This difference does not affect functional performance or compatibility.

Q: Are all parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The main part (2-1355200-1) and substitute parts 1-1355200-1 and 3-1355200-1 are ROHS3 compliant. Part 2-1355200-2 is RoHS compliant. Both compliance levels meet regulatory requirements for restricted substance elimination.

Q: Which part number should I select for high-volume production?

A: Part number 1-1355200-1 (black housing) offers the highest inventory availability at 685,100 pieces, supporting large-scale production runs without supply constraints.

Q: Do these parts include contacts?

A: No. All part numbers are connector housings only. Contacts are not included and must be ordered separately as specified in your assembly documentation.

Q: Can I mix different color housings in the same assembly?

A: Mechanically and electrically, yes. However, color-coded connector systems typically require consistent color coding for circuit identification and troubleshooting. Verify color consistency requirements in your design specifications before mixing part numbers.

Q: What is the pitch specification, and why is it important?

A: The pitch is 0.236" (6.00mm), which defines the center-to-center distance between contact positions. This specification must remain constant across all parts used in the same connector interface. All substitute parts maintain this identical pitch specification.
