Amphenol ICC 68417-407HLF Rectangular Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 68417-407HLF is a through-hole, right-angle rectangular connector header with 7 positions at 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, designed for board-to-board applications. This connector features a male pin contact configuration with solder termination and push-pull fastening. The product is currently obsolete, making identification of compatible substitute parts essential for ongoing system support, maintenance, and new design implementations where equivalent functionality is required.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 68417-407HLF is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Connector Type: Header
• Contact Type: Male Pin
• Pitch - Mating: 0.100" (2.54mm)
• Number of Positions: 7
• Number of Rows: 1
• Mounting Type: Through Hole, Right Angle
• Termination: Solder
• Fastening Type: Push-Pull
• Style: Board to Board
• Shrouding: Unshrouded
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0

The identified substitute parts maintain these core electrical and mechanical parameters, ensuring functional compatibility in applications originally designed for the 68417-407HLF. Variations in contact finish, contact length specifications, and insulation material do not affect the fundamental substitution relationship when all primary parameters align.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 68417-407HLF is obsolete; therefore, substitute parts must be selected from active product lines to ensure long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

68015-107HLF (Amphenol ICC, BERGSTIK® II Series): This part maintains identical core specifications and is manufactured by the same supplier as the original component. It is currently active and available in stock. The primary distinction is the contact finish upgrade from tin to gold or gold GXT™, which provides enhanced corrosion resistance and contact reliability. This part is RoHS Compliant and REACH Affected, meeting modern regulatory requirements. The slightly shorter post length (0.090" versus 0.120") requires verification of PCB hole depth compatibility in the target application.

61300711021 (Würth Elektronik, WR-PHD Series): This part provides an alternative from a different manufacturer while maintaining all critical mechanical and electrical parameters. It is currently active and available in stock. The contact finish is gold, and the insulation material is specified as Polyamide (PA6T), Nylon 6T. Operating temperature range is specified as -40°C to 125°C with a voltage rating of 250V and current rating of 3A per contact. The insulation height is slightly larger (0.100" versus 0.095"), and the contact length specifications differ marginally. This part is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected. The broader style designation (Board to Board or Cable) indicates additional application flexibility.

Both substitute parts satisfy the core substitution criteria and are suitable for direct replacement in applications originally designed for the 68417-407HLF, provided that minor dimensional variations are accommodated within the target PCB design.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What makes 68015-107HLF and 61300711021 suitable substitutes for the obsolete 68417-407HLF?

A: Both parts maintain identical core specifications: 7-position, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, through-hole right-angle header with male pins, solder termination, and push-pull fastening. All three connectors are unshrouded, single-row, board-to-board style with UL94 V-0 flammability rating and black insulation. These parameters define the functional compatibility required for direct substitution.

Q: Are there differences in contact finish between the main part and substitutes?

A: Yes. The 68417-407HLF features tin contact finish (100.0µin thickness), while 68015-107HLF offers gold or gold GXT™ finish (30.0µin thickness), and 61300711021 provides gold finish. Gold finishes generally offer superior corrosion resistance and contact reliability compared to tin, making them suitable upgrades for long-term reliability applications.

Q: What is the significance of the contact length variations?

A: Contact length specifications affect PCB hole depth and mating depth requirements. The 68417-407HLF has a post length of 0.120" (3.05mm), while 68015-107HLF is 0.090" (2.29mm), and 61300711021 is 0.118" (3.00mm). These variations require verification against the target PCB design to ensure proper solder joint formation and mechanical engagement.

Q: Do the substitute parts meet current regulatory compliance standards?

A: 68015-107HLF is RoHS Compliant and REACH Affected. 61300711021 is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected. Both parts meet modern regulatory requirements, whereas the obsolete 68417-407HLF does not carry current compliance certifications. Selection should consider the regulatory environment of the target application.

Q: What packaging options are available for these substitute parts?

A: 68015-107HLF is supplied in Bag packaging, while 61300711021 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Packaging selection may influence procurement logistics and inventory management strategies.

Q: Can 61300711021 be used in cable applications?

A: Yes. The 61300711021 is designated for Board to Board or Cable style applications, providing broader application flexibility compared to the 68417-407HLF and 68015-107HLF, which are specified for board-to-board style only.
