TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 2-32050-1 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 2-32050-1 is a red insulated spade terminal connector designed for crimp termination of 16-22 AWG wire. This component features an 8 stud configuration and is part of the PIDG series. The part is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent alternatives for ongoing procurement and system maintenance. Substitute parts must maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility across all critical parameters including wire gauge range, stud size, termination method, and physical dimensions.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 2-32050-1 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters: Wire gauge range (16-22 AWG), contact material (copper), contact finish (tin), and insulation type (insulated polyamide/nylon) must remain identical.

Mechanical Parameters: Stud size (8 stud), overall length (0.908"), outer width (0.375"), tongue inside opening (0.171"), and termination method (crimp) must be maintained.

Compliance Parameters: RoHS compliance status must be equivalent or superior. Moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1) and material composition must align.

The substitute part 2-32053-1 satisfies all these criteria while offering the advantage of active product status and improved packaging availability.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 2-32053-1 serves as a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete 2-32050-1. Both components are manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including wire gauge, stud configuration, termination method, and physical dimensions.

The primary distinction between these parts is product status: the 2-32050-1 is classified as obsolete, while the 2-32053-1 maintains active status. This status difference ensures continued availability and manufacturing support for the 2-32053-1.

Both parts carry RoHS compliance certification and MSL 1 rating, confirming equivalent environmental and reliability characteristics. The insulation diameter range of the 2-32053-1 (0.105" ~ 0.140") encompasses the upper portion of the 2-32050-1 range (0.080" ~ 0.125"), providing compatibility with the specified 16-22 AWG wire gauge applications.

For new designs and ongoing procurement, the 2-32053-1 is the appropriate selection due to its active product status and assured supply chain continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 2-32053-1 be used as a direct replacement for the 2-32050-1?

A: Yes. Both components are electrically and mechanically equivalent across all critical parameters including wire gauge (16-22 AWG), stud size (8 stud), termination method (crimp), and physical dimensions. The 2-32053-1 is the active equivalent.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The 2-32050-1 is classified as obsolete. The 2-32053-1 provides an active alternative with identical specifications and assured manufacturing continuity.

Q: Are there differences in insulation diameter specifications?

A: The 2-32050-1 specifies insulation diameter of 0.080" ~ 0.125" (2.03mm ~ 3.18mm), while the 2-32053-1 specifies 0.105" ~ 0.140" (2.67mm ~ 3.56mm). Both ranges accommodate the 16-22 AWG wire gauge requirement, with the 2-32053-1 range shifted toward the upper tolerance band.

Q: Do both parts carry the same compliance certifications?

A: Yes. Both the 2-32050-1 and 2-32053-1 are RoHS compliant with MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level) rating.
