Molex 5013280214 Rectangular Connector Housing - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Molex 5013280214 is a 2-position rectangular connector receptacle housing with a 0.130" (3.30mm) pitch, designed for free-hanging in-line applications. This component features a blue polyamide (PA66) insulation body with crimp-type female socket contacts and locking ramp fastening. The part is discontinued at DiGi Electronics, making identification of functional equivalents essential for ongoing design support and procurement planning. Substitute parts must maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications to ensure direct interchangeability in existing assemblies.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the Molex 5013280214 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Connector type (Receptacle)
  • Contact type (Female Socket)
  • Number of positions (2)
  • Pitch specification (0.130" / 3.30mm)
  • Number of rows (1)
  • Mounting type (Free Hanging In-Line)
  • Contact termination method (Crimp)
  • Fastening type (Locking Ramp)
  • Insulation material (Polyamide PA66)
  • Operating temperature range (-25°C ~ 80°C)
  • Regulatory compliance (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected)

The Molex 5013280214 belongs to the 501328 series. Substitute parts must maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all parameters listed above. Color variation alone does not affect functional interchangeability when all other parameters remain constant.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Molex 5013280200 replace the 5013280214 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 5013280200 is functionally equivalent across all electrical and mechanical parameters. The only difference is housing color (white versus blue), which does not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when substituting these parts?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. Both parts share identical pitch (0.130" / 3.30mm), number of positions (2), contact type (female socket), termination method (crimp), and fastening mechanism (locking ramp). They are interchangeable at the assembly level.

Q: Does the color difference affect performance?

A: Color is a cosmetic attribute only and does not affect electrical performance, mechanical fit, or thermal characteristics. Both parts operate within the same temperature range (-25°C ~ 80°C) and maintain identical insulation properties.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The 5013280214 is discontinued at DiGi Electronics, while the 5013280200 is in active production. This makes the 5013280200 the recommended choice for new procurement and ongoing supply requirements.

Q: Are both parts RoHS and REACH compliant?

A: Yes. Both the 5013280214 and 5013280200 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory standards.

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

A: Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.
