Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 745136-2 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: manufacturer identity (TE Connectivity AMP Connectors), product category (D-Sub, D-Shaped Connectors), series designation (AMPLIMITE), accessory type (Jackscrew, Slotted), compatible connector series (HDE, HDP), thread specification (4-40), physical length below head (0.200" / 5.08mm), and feature set (Clip).

The substitute parts 5745136-2 and 5745136-3 satisfy all these criteria. Both are manufactured by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors, belong to the AMPLIMITE series, function as slotted jackscrews with clip features, maintain identical thread size and length specifications, and are designated for use with AMPLIMITE Series HDE and HDP connectors. The primary distinction between substitute options relates to product status (active versus obsolete) and regulatory compliance certifications (RoHS status).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 745136-2 is classified as obsolete and exhibits RoHS non-compliance status. For new designs and ongoing production requiring regulatory compliance with RoHS directives, substitution with either 5745136-2 or 5745136-3 is necessary.

5745136-2 is designated as a direct substitute with active product status and ROHS3 compliance certification. This part maintains identical mechanical and electrical specifications while providing current manufacturing support and regulatory alignment.

5745136-3 is designated as a similar substitute with active product status and RoHS compliance certification. This part also maintains identical mechanical and electrical specifications with current manufacturing availability.

Both substitute parts are functionally equivalent to the 745136-2 across all critical parameters. Selection between 5745136-2 and 5745136-3 should be based on specific regulatory requirements, supply chain preferences, and packaging specifications for the application. Both parts are available in bag packaging and maintain unlimited moisture sensitivity classification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 5745136-2 or 5745136-3 be used as direct replacements for 745136-2 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. Both substitute parts maintain identical thread size (4-40), length below head (0.200" / 5.08mm), clip feature, and compatibility with AMPLIMITE Series HDE and HDP connectors. Mechanical and functional interchangeability is confirmed across all specified parameters.

Q: What is the primary reason for substituting 745136-2?

A: The 745136-2 is classified as obsolete with RoHS non-compliance status. Active substitute parts with current manufacturing support and regulatory compliance are necessary for ongoing production and new designs.

Q: Are there differences between 5745136-2 and 5745136-3?

A: Both parts are functionally equivalent with identical mechanical specifications. The distinction lies in RoHS certification level (ROHS3 Compliant versus RoHS Compliant) and potential supply chain availability. Both are active products supplied in bag packaging.

Q: Does the packaging format affect compatibility?

A: No. The packaging format (bag) is a logistics consideration and does not affect mechanical or electrical compatibility. The jackscrew component itself is identical across all three part numbers.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) for these parts?

A: All three parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage, handling, or assembly processes.

Q: Are these parts suitable for new product designs?

A: The substitute parts 5745136-2 and 5745136-3 are active products with current manufacturing support. Both are suitable for new designs. The 745136-2 should not be used in new designs due to obsolete status and RoHS non-compliance.
