TE Connectivity 6-1123722-6 Rectangular Connector Plug Housing Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity 6-1123722-6 is a 6-position rectangular connector plug housing from the Economy Power series. This component is a green polyamide housing designed for crimp contact termination with a 0.156" (3.96mm) pitch configuration. The part is classified as Active product status and is RoHS3 compliant.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent rectangular connectors share identical electrical and mechanical specifications while differing in non-critical attributes such as color or insulation material variant. Identifying equivalent housings ensures design flexibility and supply chain continuity without compromising connector performance or interface compatibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of rectangular connector housings is determined by equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Connector Type: Both main and substitute parts must be plug housings
  • Contact Type: Female socket configuration must be maintained
  • Number of Positions: 6-position requirement must be identical
  • Pitch Specification: 0.156" (3.96mm) pitch is mandatory for mating compatibility
  • Number of Rows: Single-row configuration must be preserved
  • Mounting Type: Free hanging in-line mounting must be consistent
  • Contact Termination: Crimp termination method must match
  • Fastening Type: Latch lock mechanism must be identical
  • Operating Temperature Range: -25°C ~ 105°C operating window must be maintained
  • Moisture Sensitivity Level: MSL 1 rating must be equivalent

The substitute part 1-1123722-6 meets all critical substitution criteria. Variations in housing color (green versus natural) and insulation material formulation (PA with glass fill versus PA66 nylon 6/6) do not affect electrical or mechanical interface compatibility.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the main part 6-1123722-6 and substitute part 1-1123722-6 are classified as Active products from TE Connectivity AMP Connectors within the Economy Power series. Both components maintain full compliance with environmental regulations and are suitable for production applications.

The primary distinction between these parts is cosmetic and material-based rather than functional. The main part features a green housing with glass-filled polyamide insulation, while the substitute offers a natural-colored housing with PA66 nylon 6/6 insulation. Both formulations provide equivalent mechanical strength and thermal performance across the specified operating temperature range of -25°C to 105°C.

Selection between these parts should be based on:

  • Visual identification requirements: Green housing (main part) versus natural housing (substitute)
  • Supply availability: Main part inventory is 1098 pieces; substitute inventory is 45,725 pieces
  • Material specification requirements: Glass-filled PA versus PA66 nylon 6/6
  • Regulatory compliance: Both meet RoHS requirements; main part carries ROHS3 designation while substitute carries RoHS designation

Both parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable for 6-position, 0.156" pitch connector applications requiring crimp termination and latch lock fastening.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1-1123722-6 substitute directly replace the 6-1123722-6 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications including connector type, contact configuration, pitch, mounting method, and operating temperature range. The housing color and insulation material variant do not affect interface compatibility or performance.

Q: What is the difference between the green and natural housing colors?

A: Color is a visual identifier only and does not impact electrical or mechanical function. The green housing (6-1123722-6) and natural housing (1-1123722-6) are functionally equivalent for all connector applications.

Q: Are the insulation materials interchangeable?

A: Yes. The glass-filled polyamide (PA) in the main part and the PA66 nylon 6/6 in the substitute part both provide equivalent mechanical strength and thermal stability across the -25°C to 105°C operating range. Both materials meet the same performance requirements for this connector housing application.

Q: Do both parts require the same contact specifications?

A: Yes. Both housings are designed for identical crimp-terminated female socket contacts with 0.156" (3.96mm) pitch spacing. Contact selection and termination procedures remain unchanged between the two parts.

Q: What is the significance of the different RoHS designations?

A: Both parts are RoHS compliant. The main part carries ROHS3 designation while the substitute carries RoHS designation. Both meet current environmental compliance requirements for production use.

Q: Are there any packaging or inventory considerations?

A: The main part (6-1123722-6) has 1098 pieces in stock, while the substitute (1-1123722-6) has significantly higher availability at 45,725 pieces. For applications with extended lead time requirements, the substitute may offer supply chain advantages.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in the same assembly?

A: Yes. Both parts are mechanically and electrically identical in function. They can be used interchangeably within the same assembly or across different production batches without design modification or performance impact.
