Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The SG-R BAG has been identified as a manufacturer-recommended substitute for the 512-BULK. Substitution eligibility is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Terminal Type: Both parts are Twist On Wire Cap, Wing connectors
  • Termination Method: Both use Twist On termination
  • Insulation: Both are Fully Insulated
  • Wire Material: Both accept Copper Wire Only
  • Color: Both are Red
  • Wire Gauge Compatibility: 512-BULK supports 8-20 AWG; SG-R BAG supports 8-18 AWG (overlapping range 8-18 AWG)
  • MSL Rating: Both rated MSL 1 (Unlimited)

The SG-R BAG operates within the functional parameters of the 512-BULK for wire gauges 8-18 AWG. Applications requiring 19-20 AWG termination cannot use this substitute.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The SG-R BAG is an active product manufactured by 3M and holds ROHS3 Compliance and REACH Unaffected status. As the 512-BULK is obsolete, the SG-R BAG provides continuity for applications within the 8-18 AWG wire gauge range. Both parts share identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications, confirming regulatory equivalence. The SG-R BAG is available in bulk packaging with 5208 units in stock, supporting production requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the SG-R BAG replace the 512-BULK in all applications?

A: The SG-R BAG is suitable for applications using wire gauges 8-18 AWG. Applications requiring 19-20 AWG termination cannot use this substitute, as the SG-R BAG maximum wire gauge is 18 AWG.

Q: What is the difference in wire gauge range between these parts?

A: The 512-BULK supports 8-20 AWG, while the SG-R BAG supports 8-18 AWG. The overlap is 8-18 AWG, where substitution is valid.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the two parts?

A: Both parts share the same ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS code (8546.90.0000). The SG-R BAG holds ROHS3 Compliance and REACH Unaffected status. The 512-BULK is obsolete and no longer actively supported.

Q: What packaging options are available for the SG-R BAG?

A: The SG-R BAG is supplied in Bulk packaging with current inventory of 5208 units.

Q: Are the termination methods identical?

A: Yes, both the 512-BULK and SG-R BAG use Twist On termination with Wing Connector configuration for identical installation procedures.
