TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 61454-1 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 61454-1 is a 0.062" (1.57mm) Quick Connect Female crimp connector designed for 20-24 AWG wire gauges. This non-insulated terminal operates as a free-hanging, in-line connector with brass construction and tin finish. The part is classified as Active product status with RoHS compliance and MSL Level 1 rating, indicating unlimited moisture sensitivity tolerance. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are required for circuit continuity, connector standardization, or inventory management across manufacturing environments.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TE Connectivity 61454-1 are determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

• Wire gauge range: 20-24 AWG
• Contact material and finish: Brass with tin plating
• Termination method: Crimp connection
• Insulation type: Non-insulated configuration

Mechanical Compatibility Parameters:

• Tab width: 0.062" (1.57mm)
• Tab thickness: 0.032" (0.81mm)
• Tab length: 0.186" (4.72mm)
• Overall length: 0.462" (11.73mm)
• Insulation diameter accommodation: 0.040" ~ 0.080" (1.02mm ~ 2.03mm)
• Gender: Female
• Mounting configuration: Free hanging, in-line

Compliance Parameters:

• RoHS compliance status
• Moisture sensitivity level: MSL 1

No substitute parts have been provided in the input data. Equivalent alternatives must match all specified electrical, mechanical, and compliance parameters to ensure direct interchangeability without circuit redesign or connector modification.

Parameter Comparison

No substitute parts are available for comparison. The 61454-1 remains the specified component for applications requiring the exact electrical and mechanical characteristics defined in this reference.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity 61454-1 is an Active product with full RoHS compliance and MSL Level 1 rating, confirming suitability for standard manufacturing and storage environments without moisture-related constraints. The part's tin-plated brass construction provides reliable electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance for 20-24 AWG wire terminations in quick-connect applications.

Selection of this component is appropriate for designs requiring:

• Non-insulated quick-connect female terminals
• 0.062" tab width standardization
• Crimp termination for 20-24 AWG conductors
• Free-hanging, in-line connector configurations
• RoHS-compliant component sourcing

When substitute parts become necessary due to supply constraints or design modifications, direct equivalence across all specified parameters must be verified before component substitution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What wire gauges are compatible with the 61454-1? A: The 61454-1 accommodates 20-24 AWG wire gauges exclusively. Wire sizes outside this range are not compatible with the crimp termination specifications.

Q: Can the 61454-1 be used in insulated applications? A: No. The 61454-1 is manufactured as a non-insulated terminal. Insulated variants require different part numbers and specifications.

Q: What is the tab width specification, and why is it critical for substitution? A: The tab width is 0.062" (1.57mm). This dimension determines compatibility with mating connectors and quick-connect receptacles. Substitute parts must match this specification exactly.

Q: Is the 61454-1 RoHS compliant? A: Yes. The 61454-1 carries full RoHS compliance certification, confirming the absence of restricted substances in its brass and tin construction.

Q: What does MSL Level 1 mean for storage and handling? A: MSL Level 1 indicates unlimited moisture sensitivity tolerance. The component requires no special moisture-controlled storage conditions and can be handled under standard manufacturing environments.

Q: How does the 0.032" tab thickness affect connector performance? A: Tab thickness determines the mechanical strength and electrical contact pressure within mating receptacles. The 0.032" specification ensures proper engagement with standard 0.062" quick-connect receptacles without excessive force or contact degradation.

Q: Can the 61454-1 be substituted with parts from other manufacturers? A: Substitution is possible only when alternative parts match all specified electrical, mechanical, and compliance parameters. Direct equivalence across tab dimensions, wire gauge range, contact material, and RoHS status must be confirmed.

Q: What is the insulation diameter range, and how does it affect wire compatibility? A: The insulation diameter range is 0.040" ~ 0.080" (1.02mm ~ 2.03mm). This specification ensures proper crimp engagement with the terminal barrel, accommodating standard insulation thicknesses for 20-24 AWG conductors.
