Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the TE Connectivity 320627 ring terminal is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

• Wire gauge range: 14-16 AWG
• Contact material: Copper
• Contact finish: Tin
• Termination method: Crimp

Mechanical Compatibility Parameters:

• Terminal type: Circular
• Stud size: 8 Stud
• Thickness: 0.048" (1.22mm)
• Width - Outer Edges: 0.343" (8.71mm)
• Length - Overall: 1.046" (26.57mm)
• Insulation diameter: 0.150" ~ 0.230" (3.81mm ~ 5.84mm)
• Insulation material: Polyamide (PA), Nylon

Compliance Parameters:

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Series: PIDG
• Product Status: Active

The substitute part 1-320627-0 maintains identical specifications across all electrical and mechanical parameters. The only difference between the main part and substitute is the packaging configuration: the main part is supplied in Bulk packaging, while the substitute is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging. This packaging difference does not affect functional performance or circuit compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the main part 320627 and substitute part 1-320627-0 are functionally equivalent for circuit applications requiring 14-16 AWG insulated ring terminals with 8-stud circular configuration. Both parts maintain Active product status and ROHS3 compliance, confirming ongoing manufacturer support and regulatory adherence.

Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements and inventory availability:

Select 320627 (Bulk Packaging) when bulk quantities are required for high-volume assembly operations or when bulk packaging aligns with existing supply chain processes.

Select 1-320627-0 (Cut Tape Packaging) when smaller quantities are needed, when tape-and-reel format is compatible with automated pick-and-place equipment, or when the higher inventory level (5603 pcs) provides supply chain advantages.

Both parts deliver identical electrical performance, mechanical fit, and compliance certifications. The choice between them is a procurement and logistics decision rather than a technical performance decision.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 320627 and 1-320627-0 electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors with identical electrical specifications including wire gauge (14-16 AWG), contact material (copper with tin finish), and termination method (crimp). They deliver equivalent electrical performance in all circuit applications.

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

A: The packaging format differs. The 320627 is supplied in Bulk packaging, while the 1-320627-0 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging. All electrical, mechanical, and compliance specifications are identical.

Q: Can I use 1-320627-0 in place of 320627 in my assembly?

A: Yes. The 1-320627-0 is a direct functional substitute. The component itself is identical; only the packaging differs. Verify that your assembly process is compatible with Cut Tape packaging if selecting the 1-320627-0.

Q: Are both parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 320627 and 1-320627-0 carry ROHS3 compliance certification, confirming they meet current regulatory requirements for restricted substances.

Q: What wire gauges do these terminals accommodate?

A: Both parts are rated for 14-16 AWG wire gauges. The insulation diameter range of 0.150" to 0.230" (3.81mm to 5.84mm) accommodates standard wire insulation within this gauge range.

Q: Which part should I select for automated assembly?

A: The 1-320627-0 in Cut Tape (CT) packaging is typically preferred for automated pick-and-place equipment. Verify compatibility with your specific assembly equipment before selection.

Q: Are these parts suitable for high-reliability applications?

A: Both parts feature heavy-duty construction with serrated termination and tin-plated copper contacts. Product status is Active for both, indicating ongoing manufacturer support. Verify specific application requirements against the provided specifications.

Q: What is the stud size for these ring terminals?

A: Both parts feature an 8-stud circular configuration, suitable for #8 studs or equivalent mounting points.
