Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 552633-4 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Accessory Type: Must be jackscrew socket
• Application Compatibility: Must be designed for D-Sub right angle PCB connectors
• Mechanical Dimensions: Length - threaded portion below head (0.315" / 8.00mm) and length below head (0.457" / 11.61mm) must match exactly
• Thread Specification: M3.5 socket with 4-40 screw configuration must be identical
• Hardware Configuration: Must include hardware as standard

The substitute part 5552633-4 meets all substitution criteria through identical mechanical and functional specifications. The primary distinction between the main part and substitute is product status and compliance certification level.

Parameter Comparison

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 5552633-4 be used as a direct replacement for 552633-4 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The substitute part 5552633-4 is mechanically and functionally equivalent to 552633-4. All critical parameters including thread size (M3.5 socket, 4-40 screw), length specifications (0.315" threaded portion, 0.457" below head), and application compatibility (D-Sub right angle PCB connectors) are identical.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The main distinction is product status and compliance certification. The 552633-4 is obsolete with undefined REACH status, while the 5552633-4 is an active production part with ROHS3 compliance and REACH affected designation.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the main part and substitute?

A: The substitute part 5552633-4 is supplied in box packaging. The main part 552633-4 does not specify packaging format in available documentation.

Q: Does the substitute part include hardware?

A: Yes. The 5552633-4 includes hardware as a standard feature, matching the hardware inclusion specification of the main part.

Q: Is the substitute part suitable for new designs?

A: Yes. The active production status and current compliance certifications of 5552633-4 make it suitable for new design implementations requiring D-Sub right angle PCB connector jackscrew socket assemblies.

Q: What thread specifications must be matched for substitution?

A: Both parts utilize M3.5 socket with 4-40 screw thread configuration. This specification must remain constant for mechanical compatibility in D-Sub connector assemblies.
