PC Pin Terminal Connector 3232-3-00-01-00-00-08-0 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Mill-Max Manufacturing Corp. 3232-3-00-01-00-00-08-0 is an active PC pin terminal connector designed for through-hole mounting applications. This non-insulated brass alloy terminal features a 0.040" (1.02mm) circular pin diameter with tin-lead contact finish, suitable for PCB applications requiring swage termination. The part is currently in active production status with 767 units in stock.

Alternative equivalent parts may be required due to supply chain considerations, manufacturing availability, or specific compliance requirements for end applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for PC pin terminal connectors is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Pin diameter: 0.040" (1.02mm)
• Overall length: 0.395" (10.03mm)
• Flange diameter: 0.093" (2.36mm)
• Mounting hole diameter: 0.062" (1.57mm)
• Mounting type: Through hole
• Termination method: Swage
• Contact material composition: Brass-based alloy
• Contact finish thickness: 200.0µin (5.08µm)

The Keystone Electronics 1422-3 meets all critical dimensional and functional parameters required for direct substitution. Variations in contact finish composition (tin versus tin-lead) and board thickness tolerance do not affect mechanical or electrical compatibility within the specified parameter range.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Mill-Max 3232-3-00-01-00-00-08-0 and Keystone Electronics 1422-3 are active production parts with identical mechanical specifications and electrical performance characteristics.

The primary distinction is compliance status: the Mill-Max part is RoHS non-compliant, while the Keystone Electronics 1422-3 is ROHS3 compliant. Selection between these parts depends on end-application regulatory requirements. Applications subject to RoHS directives or equivalent environmental regulations must use the Keystone Electronics 1422-3. Applications without such constraints may use either part based on availability and supply chain considerations.

Both parts maintain identical moisture sensitivity levels (MSL 1 - Unlimited) and REACH unaffected status, ensuring equivalent reliability and handling requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What determines if the Keystone Electronics 1422-3 can replace the Mill-Max 3232-3-00-01-00-00-08-0?

A: Direct substitution is based on matching critical parameters: pin diameter (0.040"), overall length (0.395"), flange diameter (0.093"), mounting hole diameter (0.062"), mounting type (through hole), termination method (swage), and contact finish thickness (200.0µin). The 1422-3 meets all these specifications.

Q: Does the difference between tin-lead and tin contact finish affect compatibility?

A: Both contact finishes are applied at identical thickness (200.0µin) and provide equivalent electrical and mechanical performance within the specified parameter range. Selection depends on application-specific requirements and soldering process compatibility.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are supplied in bulk packaging. The Mill-Max part has 767 units in stock, while the Keystone Electronics part has 7233 units available.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: For applications requiring RoHS compliance, the Keystone Electronics 1422-3 is the appropriate selection. Both parts are active production items suitable for new designs within their respective compliance frameworks.

Q: Do these parts require different handling or storage procedures?

A: Both parts share identical moisture sensitivity levels (MSL 1 - Unlimited), requiring no special moisture control during storage or handling.
