TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 499913-6 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 499913-6 is a rectangular connector header designed for through-hole, right-angle mounting applications. This 26-position connector operates at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch and is rated for 1A per contact at 250VAC. The connector features shrouded 4-wall construction with latch lock/eject hooks and is classified as Active product status. Substitute parts are identified to address packaging format availability and compliance requirements while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 499913-6 with part number 5499913-6 is based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. Both connectors maintain identical specifications across all critical functional parameters: 26-position configuration, 2-row layout, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, through-hole right-angle mounting, shrouded 4-wall construction, 1A per contact current rating, and 250VAC voltage rating. Operating temperature range, contact geometry, and material flammability rating remain unchanged.

The primary distinction between these parts is packaging format (Tray versus Bulk) and compliance status. The substitute part 5499913-6 is ROHS3 compliant, whereas the main part 499913-6 is RoHS non-compliant. Contact finish on the post differs between the two parts: the main part specifies Tin-Lead, while the substitute specifies Tin only. These differences do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility in applications where the connector specifications are met.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity 5499913-6 serves as a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent to the 499913-6. Selection between these parts should be based on compliance requirements and packaging needs.

For applications requiring ROHS3 compliance, the 5499913-6 is the appropriate selection. This part maintains all electrical and mechanical specifications of the main part while meeting current regulatory requirements.

For applications with no RoHS compliance requirement, either part is functionally equivalent. The choice between Tray and Bulk packaging should be determined by inventory management and procurement processes.

The contact finish difference on the post (Tin-Lead versus Tin) does not affect connector performance in standard applications. Both finishes provide equivalent solder joint reliability when proper soldering techniques are applied.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 499913-6 and 5499913-6 electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors maintain identical electrical specifications: 26-position configuration, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, 1A per contact current rating, and 250VAC voltage rating. They are electrically interchangeable in all applications where these specifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between Tray and Bulk packaging?

A: Packaging format is the primary distinction. The 499913-6 is supplied in Tray packaging, while the 5499913-6 is supplied in Bulk packaging. This affects only handling, storage, and procurement logistics. Connector functionality remains identical.

Q: Does the RoHS compliance difference affect connector performance?

A: No. RoHS compliance status reflects manufacturing process and material sourcing requirements, not connector performance. The 5499913-6 ROHS3 compliance indicates adherence to regulatory standards for restricted substances. Both parts perform identically in electrical and mechanical applications.

Q: Are the contact finishes on the post interchangeable?

A: Yes. The 499913-6 features Tin-Lead post finish, while the 5499913-6 features Tin post finish. Both finishes provide equivalent solder joint reliability and are interchangeable in standard soldering applications.

Q: Can I use the 5499913-6 as a direct replacement for the 499913-6?

A: Yes, the 5499913-6 is a direct substitute for the 499913-6. All mechanical mounting dimensions, electrical ratings, and connector interface specifications are identical. Substitution is valid for all applications where the 499913-6 is specified.

Q: What is the current inventory status for these parts?

A: The 499913-6 has 980 pieces in stock (Tray packaging). The 5499913-6 has 1300 pieces in stock (Bulk packaging). Inventory availability should be confirmed at time of procurement.
