Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 2-967640-1 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence Criteria:

• Connector Type: Receptacle
• Contact Type: Female Socket
• Number of Positions: 4
• Number of Rows: 2
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Contact Termination: Crimp
• Fastening Type: Latch Holder
• Insulation Material: Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT), Glass Filled
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 120°C
• Series: Micro Quadlok

Allowable Variation:

• Housing Color: Gray or Black

The substitute part 1-967640-1 maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications with the only variation being housing color (Black instead of Gray). Both parts share the same base product number (967640) and are manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors within the Micro Quadlok series. This color variation does not affect functional compatibility or performance characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part Selection (2-967640-1): The TE Connectivity 2-967640-1 Gray receptacle housing is the primary specification. This part is Active in product status with robust inventory availability (1897 units in stock) and carries RoHS Compliant certification. Selection of this part is appropriate for applications where gray housing color is specified or preferred.

Substitute Part Selection (1-967640-1): The TE Connectivity 1-967640-1 Black receptacle housing is a direct functional equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. This substitute part is also Active in product status with adequate inventory (1256 units in stock) and carries ROHS3 Compliant certification, which represents an enhanced compliance level. Selection of this substitute is appropriate when black housing color is acceptable or when supply of the primary part is constrained. Both parts are manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors and operate within the same temperature range (-40°C ~ 120°C) with identical MSL rating (1 - Unlimited).

Compliance Considerations: Both parts maintain EAR99 export classification and identical HTSUS coding (8536.69.8000). The substitute part carries REACH Unaffected status compared to the primary part's Vendor Undefined status, which may provide additional regulatory clarity in certain procurement contexts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1-967640-1 (Black) be used as a direct replacement for the 2-967640-1 (Gray)?

A: Yes. The 1-967640-1 is a direct functional equivalent. Both parts are 4-position Micro Quadlok receptacle housings with identical electrical and mechanical specifications, including connector type, contact configuration, mounting method, termination type, insulation material, and operating temperature range. The only difference is housing color (Black versus Gray).

Q: Are there any compatibility issues when substituting between these parts?

A: No compatibility issues exist. Both parts are manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors within the same Micro Quadlok series and share the same base product number (967640). They accept identical crimp contacts and mount identically in free-hanging in-line configurations.

Q: Does the color difference affect electrical performance?

A: No. Housing color is a cosmetic variation that does not affect electrical performance, signal integrity, or mechanical function. Both gray and black housings are manufactured from the same insulation material (PBT, Glass Filled) and operate across the identical temperature range.

Q: What is the difference in RoHS compliance between these parts?

A: The primary part (2-967640-1) carries RoHS Compliant certification, while the substitute (1-967640-1) carries ROHS3 Compliant certification. ROHS3 represents an updated compliance standard. Both certifications indicate lead-free and hazardous substance compliance suitable for current manufacturing requirements.

Q: Are contacts included with these housings?

A: No. Both the 2-967640-1 and 1-967640-1 are housings only. Contacts are not included and must be sourced separately as compatible crimp-termination female socket contacts for the Micro Quadlok series.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) for these parts?

A: Both parts carry MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), indicating unlimited shelf life without moisture control requirements. These parts do not require special storage conditions or desiccant packaging.

Q: Can these parts be used in the same assembly without modification?

A: Yes. Both parts are mechanically and electrically interchangeable. No design modifications, PCB changes, or assembly procedure adjustments are required when substituting between the 2-967640-1 and 1-967640-1.

Q: What is the pitch specification for these connectors?

A: Pitch specification is not provided in the technical parameters for these parts. Contact TE Connectivity AMP Connectors directly for detailed pitch and contact spacing information specific to the Micro Quadlok series.
