Amphenol ICC 67096-005LF Rectangular Connector Housing - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 67096-005LF is a 5-position rectangular connector housing with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, designed for free-hanging in-line applications. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent substitute parts essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations. The housing accommodates female socket contacts with friction lock fastening and operates without moisture sensitivity constraints (MSL 1).

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 67096-005LF is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Number of Positions: Must equal 5 positions
• Pitch Specification: Must accommodate 0.100" (2.54mm) or compatible pitch spacing
• Mounting Configuration: Must support free-hanging in-line installation
• Contact Type: Must provide female socket contact interface
• Connector Category: Must remain within rectangular connectors classification
• Compliance & Regulatory: Must maintain REACH Unaffected status and equivalent environmental classification

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 1734006-5 satisfies these core substitution criteria as an active product with equivalent functional positioning and contact architecture, though with a nominal pitch variation of 0.098" (2.50mm).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The TE Connectivity 1734006-5 is designated as the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete Amphenol ICC 67096-005LF. Selection of this substitute is supported by:

• Active Product Status: The 1734006-5 maintains active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity
• Regulatory Compliance: Both components maintain REACH Unaffected classification; the substitute additionally provides RoHS Compliance certification
• Functional Equivalence: Both housings accommodate 5-position female socket contacts in single-row, free-hanging in-line configurations
• Environmental Rating: Identical MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity classification ensures equivalent performance in storage and operational environments

The pitch differential (0.100" versus 0.098") represents a 0.002" (0.05mm) variation. Physical compatibility assessment with mating connectors and PCB layout constraints is required during integration evaluation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why is the 67096-005LF classified as obsolete? A: The Amphenol ICC 67096-005LF has reached end-of-life status within the manufacturer's product portfolio. The TE Connectivity 1734006-5 represents the active equivalent for new designs and replacement applications.

Q: What is the significance of the pitch difference between 2.54mm and 2.50mm? A: The pitch specification defines the center-to-center spacing between connector positions. The 0.002" (0.05mm) difference is a minor tolerance variation. Mechanical compatibility with mating connectors and PCB footprints must be verified for your specific application.

Q: Are the contact termination methods compatible? A: The 67096-005LF does not specify contact termination method. The 1734006-5 utilizes crimp termination. Verify that your existing contact inventory or procurement specifications align with crimp-style termination requirements.

Q: Does the substitute housing support friction lock fastening? A: The 1734006-5 does not specify fastening type in the provided data. The original 67096-005LF employs friction lock fastening. Confirm fastening mechanism compatibility with your mating connector design before implementation.

Q: Are both components suitable for the same environmental conditions? A: Yes. Both the 67096-005LF and 1734006-5 carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification, indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage or operation. Both maintain REACH Unaffected regulatory status.

Q: What inventory considerations apply to this substitution? A: The 67096-005LF has 894 pieces in stock as new original inventory. The 1734006-5 has 934 pieces in stock. For obsolete component replacement, the active status of the 1734006-5 ensures continued availability beyond current inventory levels.
