Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 336075-5 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: tab width (0.250"), tab thickness (0.032"), tab length (0.240"), wire gauge range (16-20 AWG), gender (female), termination method (crimp), insulation type (non-insulated), mounting configuration (free hanging in-line), overall length (0.669"), and insulation diameter (0.118"). The substitute part 336075-3 maintains identical mechanical and electrical specifications across all these parameters, establishing direct functional equivalence. Differences in contact material composition and finish, as well as packaging format and product status, do not affect the core substitution relationship for applications requiring these specific dimensional and electrical characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity 336075-3 serves as the direct functional equivalent for the obsolete 336075-5. Both connectors share identical mechanical dimensions and electrical specifications across all critical parameters governing quick-connect female crimp terminal performance. The 336075-3 is currently in active production status with significantly higher inventory availability (31,451 pieces versus 695 pieces), ensuring reliable supply chain access.

The 336075-3 maintains RoHS3 compliance, representing current regulatory alignment. The difference in contact material (brass with tin finish versus steel with nickel finish) and packaging format (cut tape versus unspecified) does not alter the functional substitution relationship for applications requiring 0.250" quick-connect female crimp terminals rated for 16-20 AWG wire.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 336075-3 directly replace the 336075-5 in existing applications?

A: Yes. The 336075-3 maintains identical tab width, thickness, length, wire gauge rating, gender, termination method, insulation type, mounting configuration, overall length, and insulation diameter. These parameters define the connector's functional compatibility with mating components and wire termination requirements.

Q: What is the significance of the different contact materials?

A: The 336075-5 uses steel with nickel finish, while the 336075-3 uses brass with tin finish. Both materials provide electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance appropriate for quick-connect terminal applications. The material difference reflects manufacturing evolution and does not affect the substitution relationship for standard electrical performance requirements.

Q: Why is the 336075-5 listed as obsolete?

A: The 336075-5 has been superseded by the 336075-3 in TE Connectivity's product line. The 336075-3 represents the current active equivalent offering identical specifications with improved supply availability and current regulatory compliance.

Q: Does packaging format affect substitution compatibility?

A: Packaging format (cut tape versus bulk) affects procurement and handling procedures but does not alter the electrical or mechanical compatibility of the connector itself. The 336075-3 is supplied in cut tape packaging, which is standard for current production.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The 336075-5 is RoHS Compliant, and the 336075-3 is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet RoHS requirements, with the 336075-3 reflecting current regulatory standards.

Q: What wire gauges are supported by these connectors?

A: Both the 336075-5 and 336075-3 support 16-20 AWG wire gauges. This range encompasses standard electrical applications requiring quick-connect female crimp terminals.
