Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the 75160-107-36 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Connector Type & Contact Configuration: Header with male pins
Position Count & Pitch: 36 positions at 0.100" (2.54mm) mating pitch
Mounting & Termination: Through-hole solder termination
Mechanical Compatibility: Single-row, unshrouded configuration with push-pull fastening
Electrical & Material Compliance: Contact material (phosphor bronze or brass alloy), insulation material compatibility, and flammability rating (UL94 V-0)

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories based on product status and compliance posture:

Active Status Substitutes (Recommended for new designs): Parts with active product status and RoHS3 compliance, including Sullins Connector Solutions (PBC36SAAN, PBC36SABN, PEC36SAAN, PEC36SABN, PGC36SAAN), Mill-Max Manufacturing (800-10-036-10-002000), and Samtec Inc. (TSW-136 series variants).

Functional Equivalents (For legacy system maintenance): Parts meeting core mechanical and electrical parameters but with varying contact finish specifications and insulation materials.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts maintain functional compatibility with the 75160-107-36 through alignment of core mechanical and electrical parameters: 36-position, single-row, 0.100" pitch through-hole solder termination with push-pull fastening in unshrouded configuration.

For new designs and production environments requiring regulatory compliance, select from active-status parts with ROHS3 certification: Sullins Connector Solutions (PBC36SAAN, PBC36SABN, PEC36SAAN, PEC36SABN, PGC36SAAN), Mill-Max Manufacturing (800-10-036-10-002000), or Samtec Inc. TSW-136 series variants (TSW-136-07-G-S, TSW-136-07-L-S, TSW-136-07-S-S, TSW-136-07-T-S).

Contact finish selection depends on application requirements: Gold-plated mating surfaces (PBC36SAAN, PGC36SAAN, TSW-136-07-G-S, TSW-136-07-L-S, TSW-136-07-S-S) provide enhanced corrosion resistance; tin-plated alternatives (PEC36SAAN, PEC36SABN, TSW-136-07-T-S) offer cost optimization for non-corrosive environments.

Insulation material variations (PBT vs. PCT vs. Thermoplastic/Polyester) are functionally equivalent for standard through-hole applications, with all options meeting UL94 V-0 flammability requirements where specified.

Operating temperature range extends to -55°C to 125°C for Samtec TSW-136 series and -65°C to 125°C for Sullins PBC/PEC series, exceeding the original part's unspecified range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use a substitute part with different contact finish (gold vs. tin) in the same application?

A: Contact finish selection is application-dependent. Gold-plated contacts provide superior corrosion resistance and are suitable for high-reliability applications. Tin-plated contacts are functionally equivalent in dry, non-corrosive environments and offer cost advantages. Verify your application's environmental exposure before selection.

Q: What is the difference between standard header and breakaway header variants?

A: Breakaway headers (Sullins PBC36SAAN, PBC36SABN, PEC36SAAN, PEC36SABN, PGC36SAAN) feature segmented insulation allowing individual pin removal or partial connector configuration. Standard headers (Mill-Max 800-10-036-10-002000, Samtec TSW-136 series) maintain fixed 36-position configuration. Both are mechanically and electrically compatible with the original 75160-107-36 for board-to-board applications.

Q: Does the insulation material affect compatibility?

A: Insulation materials (PBT, PCT, Thermoplastic/Polyester) are functionally equivalent for standard through-hole solder termination applications. All listed substitutes meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements. Material selection does not impact electrical or mechanical compatibility with mating connectors.

Q: Why is the original 75160-107-36 marked as obsolete?

A: Obsolescence reflects manufacturer discontinuation. All listed active-status substitutes provide equivalent functionality with improved regulatory compliance (ROHS3 certification) and extended product availability through current distribution channels.

Q: Are there inventory considerations when selecting a substitute?

A: Current inventory levels vary by manufacturer and part number. Samtec TSW-136-07-G-S (2,394 units), Sullins PEC36SAAN (7,503 units), and PBC36SABN (7,944 units) maintain higher stock levels. Verify availability with your component supplier for production scheduling.

Q: What is the impact of different contact length specifications?

A: Contact length variations (mating contact length 0.142" to 0.230", post length 0.100" to 0.230") affect overall connector height and board-to-board spacing. Verify PCB layout compatibility with substitute part dimensions before design finalization. All variants maintain 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch alignment.
