Amphenol ICC 65239-019LF Rectangular Connector Housing - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 65239-019LF is a 38-position rectangular connector housing designed for 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch applications. This receptacle housing features a blue thermoplastic, glass-filled insulation body and supports crimp-style female socket contacts in a 2-row configuration. The part is currently active in production with 1102 units in stock.

Equivalent and substitute parts are identified when design requirements permit variations in color, insulation material, operating temperature range, or manufacturer while maintaining core electrical and mechanical compatibility based on connector type, position count, pitch, row configuration, and mounting method.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 65239-019LF is determined by strict equivalence in the following core parameters:

Connector type (Receptacle)
Contact type (Female Socket)
Position count (38 positions)
Pitch specification (0.100" / 2.54mm)
Row configuration (2 rows at 0.100" spacing)
Mounting method (Free Hanging In-Line)
Contact termination (Crimp)

Variations permitted in substitute parts include insulation material composition, housing color, operating temperature range, manufacturer identity, and series designation. These variations do not affect mechanical or electrical interchangeability when the core parameters remain constant.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

65043-018LF (Amphenol ICC): This part maintains active production status and RoHS compliance identical to the main part. The substitute differs in housing color (black vs. blue) and insulation material (polyphenylene modified vs. thermoplastic glass-filled). The operating temperature range is narrower (-40°C to 105°C versus -65°C to 125°C). Selection of this substitute is appropriate when color differentiation is acceptable and operating temperature requirements fall within the -40°C to 105°C envelope.

3-87456-3 (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors): This part is discontinued at DiGi Electronics and carries different HTSUS classification. While core mechanical and electrical parameters match, the discontinued status and lack of specified insulation material data present supply chain and documentation considerations. This substitute should be evaluated only when existing inventory must be utilized and long-term availability is not a requirement.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 65043-018LF substitute for the 65239-019LF in all applications?

A: The 65043-018LF is mechanically and electrically interchangeable for applications where the operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C is sufficient. If your design requires operation below -40°C or above 105°C, the 65239-019LF with its -65°C to 125°C range is required. Housing color difference (black vs. blue) does not affect electrical function.

Q: What is the significance of the different insulation materials?

A: The 65239-019LF uses thermoplastic glass-filled material, while the 65043-018LF uses modified polyphenylene. Both materials are RoHS compliant and rated MSL 1. Material selection affects mechanical properties and environmental resistance but does not change connector compatibility when pitch, position count, and row configuration remain identical.

Q: Is the 3-87456-3 a viable long-term substitute?

A: The 3-87456-3 is discontinued at DiGi Electronics, making it unsuitable for new designs or applications requiring ongoing component availability. It should be considered only for legacy system maintenance using existing inventory.

Q: Do all three parts accept the same contact pins?

A: All three housings are 38-position receptacles with 0.100" pitch and crimp termination. Contact compatibility depends on the specific contact part number, which is not included with these housings. Verify contact part numbers separately to ensure proper mating.

Q: What is the difference in REACH and ECCN status between these parts?

A: The 65239-019LF and 65043-018LF share identical REACH Affected status and EAR99 ECCN classification. The 3-87456-3 lists REACH status as Vendor Undefined and uses a different HTSUS code (8536.69.8000 vs. 8538.90.6000), which may affect export documentation and compliance requirements.
