Amphenol ICC 75160-318-02LF Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Amphenol ICC 75160-318-02LF is a rectangular connector header with vertical orientation, 2 positions, and 2.54mm pitch designed for through-hole board-to-board applications. This component is classified as obsolete, making equivalent and substitute parts necessary for ongoing design support, production continuity, and system maintenance. Active alternatives from manufacturers including Molex, Mill-Max, Samtec, and On Shore Technology provide functional equivalence while maintaining compatibility with the original electrical and mechanical specifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 75160-318-02LF is determined by strict alignment with the following core parameters: connector type (header), contact type (male pin), pitch (0.100" / 2.54mm), number of positions (2), number of rows (1), mounting type (through hole), termination method (solder), fastening type (push-pull), and material flammability rating (UL94 V-0). All substitute parts listed meet these mandatory criteria. Variations in contact finish (tin versus gold), contact length, insulation height, and contact material are permitted within the scope of functional equivalence, as these parameters do not affect mating compatibility or board-level integration. Operating temperature ranges and current ratings may differ between substitutes; selection should account for specific application requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts are active products with current manufacturing support and ROHS3 compliance status, providing long-term availability and regulatory alignment. The Molex 0423752486, Samtec MTLW series (MTLW-102-07-G-S-230, MTLW-102-07-L-S-250, MTLW-102-23-G-S-270), and On Shore Technology PH1-230/120-021 maintain UL94 V-0 flammability certification matching the original specification. Samtec TS series parts (TS-102-G-A-1, TS-102-G-AA, TS-102-T-A-1) and HTS-102-T-AA offer simplified specifications with active product status. The Mill-Max 800-10-002-10-001000 provides an alternative with ROHS3 compliance and active availability. Contact finish selection (tin or gold) should align with application solderability requirements and environmental exposure conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

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

A: Yes. All listed parts share the core mechanical and electrical parameters: 2-position, 0.100" pitch, through-hole solder termination, male pin headers with push-pull fastening. Direct substitution is supported at the board-level interface.

Q: What is the difference between tin and gold contact finishes?

A: Tin-finished contacts (75160-318-02LF, HTS-102-T-AA, TS-102-T-A-1) provide standard solderability and cost efficiency. Gold-finished contacts (Molex 0423752486, Samtec MTLW series, On Shore PH1-230/120-021, Samtec TS-102-G series) offer enhanced corrosion resistance and are preferred in high-reliability or high-humidity applications.

Q: Are there differences in contact length between the original and substitutes?

A: Yes. Contact lengths vary across the substitute range. The original 75160-318-02LF specifies 0.225" mating contact length. Substitutes range from 0.195" to 0.270". These variations do not affect mating compatibility but may influence insertion force and mechanical retention characteristics. Verify contact length compatibility with mating connector specifications.

Q: Which substitutes maintain the original UL94 V-0 rating?

A: Molex 0423752486, Samtec MTLW-102-07-G-S-230, MTLW-102-07-L-S-250, MTLW-102-23-G-S-270, On Shore PH1-230/120-021, and Samtec TS-102-G-AA maintain UL94 V-0 certification. Other substitutes do not specify flammability rating in provided data.

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

A: Breakaway headers (Molex 0423752486, On Shore PH1-230/120-021) allow individual positions to be separated after assembly. Standard headers (Samtec, Mill-Max) maintain fixed position configuration. Breakaway capability does not affect mating compatibility.

Q: Are all substitutes RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. All substitute parts carry ROHS3 compliance certification, meeting current regulatory requirements for lead-free and restricted substance compliance.

Q: Which substitutes have the highest current rating?

A: Samtec MTLW series parts (MTLW-102-07-G-S-230, MTLW-102-07-L-S-250, MTLW-102-23-G-S-270) specify 5.2A per contact. The original 75160-318-02LF specifies 5A. On Shore PH1-230/120-021 specifies 3A. Other substitutes do not provide current rating data.
