Keystone Electronics 6076 Banana Plug Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Keystone Electronics 6076 is a miniature banana plug connector designed for solder termination applications. This male connector features a red insulated body and is classified as a free-hanging, in-line component suitable for general-purpose electrical connections requiring miniature-diameter banana plugs. The part maintains active product status with robust inventory availability (1009 pcs in stock). Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications are required due to supply constraints, design standardization, or application-specific requirements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The Cinch Connectivity Solutions 108-1002-001 qualifies as a direct substitute for the Keystone Electronics 6076 based on the following critical parameters:

• Connector type, gender, and plug diameter classification match exactly (Banana Plug, Male, Miniature)
• Mounting configuration and termination method are identical (Free Hanging In-Line, Solder)
• Insulation specification and color are equivalent (Non-Mating End Insulated, Red)
• Contact material and finish specifications align (Beryllium Copper, Nickel)
• Body material composition is functionally equivalent (Polyamide/Nylon family)
• Regulatory compliance is maintained (ROHS3 Compliant, MSL 1)

The substitute part introduces an operating temperature specification (-55°C ~ 85°C) and specifies wire gauge as 18 AWG, whereas the main part does not declare these parameters. These additions do not preclude substitution but represent extended environmental capability in the substitute component.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the Keystone Electronics 6076 and Cinch Connectivity Solutions 108-1002-001 maintain active product status and full ROHS3 compliance. Selection between these components should be based on:

• Supply availability and lead time requirements
• Wire gauge compatibility with application requirements (0.050" diameter vs. 18 AWG specification)
• Operating temperature environment (Cinch part specifies -55°C ~ 85°C range)
• Inventory position (Cinch part currently shows higher stock availability at 1998 pcs)
• REACH compliance status (Keystone part is REACH Unaffected; Cinch part is REACH Affected)

Both components satisfy the core electrical and mechanical requirements for miniature banana plug solder termination applications with equivalent contact materials, finishes, and insulation specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Cinch 108-1002-001 directly replace the Keystone 6076 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical specifications for connector type, gender, plug diameter, mounting configuration, termination method, insulation, color, contact material, and contact finish. The Cinch part provides additional operating temperature specification and wire gauge definition, which do not prevent substitution.

Q: What is the significance of the wire gauge difference between the two parts?

A: The Keystone 6076 specifies 0.050" (1.27mm) diameter wire, while the Cinch 108-1002-001 specifies 18 AWG. These measurements describe the wire size compatibility for solder termination. Verify that your application wire gauge aligns with the selected component's specification.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating. The Keystone part is REACH Unaffected, while the Cinch part is REACH Affected. Applications subject to REACH regulations should confirm compliance requirements with the appropriate regulatory documentation.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for the Keystone 6076?

A: The Keystone 6076 does not specify an operating temperature range in the provided documentation. The Cinch 108-1002-001 specifies -55°C ~ 85°C. For applications requiring defined temperature performance, the Cinch part provides explicit environmental capability.

Q: How do the body materials compare?

A: Both parts use polyamide (nylon) body materials. The Keystone part specifies PA/Nylon, while the Cinch part specifies PA66/Nylon 6/6. Both materials are functionally equivalent for this connector application.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection should be based on supply chain strategy, inventory availability, and specific application requirements. Both parts satisfy equivalent electrical and mechanical criteria for miniature banana plug solder termination applications.
