Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts are classified as active products with ROHS3 compliance, providing improved regulatory alignment compared to the obsolete, RoHS non-compliant 75160-318-02. Selection among substitutes should be based on the following criteria:

Compliance Priority: All substitute parts meet current RoHS3 requirements, eliminating regulatory risk associated with the original component.

Flammability Rating: Parts with specified UL94 V-0 ratings (Molex 0423752486, Samtec MTLW series, On Shore PH1-230/120-021) maintain material flammability compliance equivalent to the original part. Mill-Max 800-10-002-10-001000 does not specify flammability rating.

Contact Finish Selection: Gold-plated contacts (Molex, Mill-Max, Samtec MTLW, Samtec TS series) provide superior corrosion resistance compared to the original tin-lead finish. Tin-plated alternatives (Samtec HTS-102-T-AA, Samtec TS-102-T-A-1) offer cost optimization while maintaining functional compatibility.

Insulation Material: Polyamide and Liquid Crystal Polymer formulations in substitute parts provide enhanced thermal and mechanical stability compared to generic thermoplastic in the original component.

Inventory Availability: All substitute parts maintain active production status with documented stock levels ranging from 758 to 4856 units, ensuring supply chain continuity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 75160-318-02 be directly replaced with any of these substitute parts?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts maintain the critical functional parameters: 2-position, 2.54mm pitch, male pin header, through-hole solder termination, and push-pull fastening. Physical board layout compatibility is preserved across all substitutes.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The 75160-318-02 is classified as obsolete with RoHS non-compliant status. All substitute parts are active products with ROHS3 compliance, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory alignment.

Q: Does contact finish affect electrical performance?

A: Contact finish does not alter electrical function for low-frequency applications. Gold plating provides superior corrosion resistance in humid or corrosive environments. Tin plating is suitable for standard industrial applications.

Q: Are there dimensional differences between the original and substitutes?

A: Contact length and overall contact length vary among substitutes. These variations do not affect mating compatibility with standard 2.54mm pitch receptacles. Board-level clearance should be verified for applications with space constraints.

Q: Which substitute offers the closest specification match to the original part?

A: The On Shore Technology PH1-230/120-021 maintains the closest alignment with the original specification, including square contact shape, phosphor bronze material, and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. This part is recommended for direct replacement in existing designs.

Q: Are breakaway variants functionally equivalent?

A: Yes. Molex 0423752486 and On Shore PH1-230/120-021 include breakaway capability, allowing individual position separation. This feature does not affect standard board-to-board mating and provides additional design flexibility.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for substitute parts?

A: The original part does not specify operating temperature. Samtec MTLW series parts are rated for -55°C to 125°C. On Shore PH1-230/120-021 is rated for -25°C to 85°C. Other substitutes do not specify operating temperature limits.
