Amphenol ICC 69167-404 Rectangular Connector Header - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 69167-404 is a shrouded vertical rectangular connector header designed for through-hole mounting in board-to-cable/wire applications. This 4-position connector operates at a 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch and features male pin contacts with solder termination and friction lock fastening. The part is currently listed as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing design support and component procurement.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 69167-404 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: connector type (header), contact type (male pin), number of positions (4), number of rows (1), mating pitch (0.100"/2.54mm), mounting method (through hole), termination type (solder), shrouding configuration (shrouded - 2 wall), fastening mechanism (friction lock), contact shape (square), contact finish (tin), contact material (phosphor bronze), insulation color (black), and flammability rating (UL94 V-0). All identified substitutes maintain identical specifications across these parameters, ensuring direct functional and mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 69167-404HLF serves as the direct functional equivalent to the obsolete 69167-404. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical connector parameters. The primary distinction lies in product status and regulatory compliance: the 69167-404HLF is actively manufactured and carries RoHS compliance certification, whereas the 69167-404 is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant. For new designs or component replenishment, the 69167-404HLF is the appropriate selection. The HLF variant is available in bulk packaging and maintains full compatibility with applications originally specified for the 69167-404.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 69167-404 and 69167-404HLF mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in connector type, contact configuration, pitch, mounting method, shrouding, and all physical dimensions. They are direct mechanical substitutes.

Q: What is the significance of the "HLF" suffix in the 69167-404HLF part number?

A: The HLF designation indicates the RoHS-compliant variant of the base 69167 connector series. This variant incorporates materials and finishes that meet RoHS requirements.

Q: Why is the 69167-404 listed as obsolete?

A: The 69167-404 is obsolete due to its RoHS non-compliant status. Amphenol ICC has transitioned to the RoHS-compliant 69167-404HLF for ongoing production and support.

Q: Can I use the 69167-404HLF as a direct replacement in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The 69167-404HLF maintains full functional and mechanical compatibility with the 69167-404. No design modifications are required.

Q: What packaging options are available for the 69167-404HLF?

A: The 69167-404HLF is supplied in bulk packaging.

Q: Are there any electrical performance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts share identical contact material (phosphor bronze), contact finish (tin at 100.0µin/2.54µm thickness), and flammability rating (UL94 V-0). Electrical performance is equivalent.
