Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 770247-4 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Manufacturer: TE Connectivity AMP Connectors
• Series: Universal MATE-N-LOK II
• Pin or Socket: Socket
• Contact Termination: Crimp
• Wire Gauge: 10-12 AWG
• Contact Finish: Gold
• Contact Finish Thickness: 30.0µin (0.76µm)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Variable Parameters (Non-Critical for Substitution):

• Packaging format (Bulk vs. Cut Tape)
• RoHS compliance status
• REACH compliance status
• Base product number designation

The identified substitute parts maintain full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the primary part number while differing in packaging configuration and regulatory compliance certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

770247-4 (Primary Part): This part is active in production and suitable for applications where RoHS non-compliance is acceptable and REACH-affected material sourcing is permissible. Current inventory is 781 pieces.

1-770247-0 (Direct Substitute - Recommended for RoHS3 Compliance): This part is functionally identical to 770247-4 across all electrical and mechanical parameters. The primary distinction is ROHS3 compliance certification, making this part suitable for applications requiring RoHS3 adherence. REACH status is vendor undefined. Inventory availability is higher at 2123 pieces. This part is the preferred substitute when regulatory compliance with RoHS3 is a requirement.

770004-4 (Similar Substitute - Recommended for Cut Tape Packaging): This part maintains full electrical and mechanical equivalence to 770247-4 but is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging rather than Bulk format. RoHS and REACH compliance status matches the primary part. This substitute is appropriate for applications requiring tape-and-reel packaging for automated assembly processes. Inventory availability is significantly higher at 14190 pieces.

Selection between these parts should be based on specific project requirements regarding regulatory compliance, packaging format, and supply chain logistics rather than electrical performance, as all three parts are functionally interchangeable.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are 770247-4, 1-770247-0, and 770004-4 electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. All three parts are socket contacts for the Universal MATE-N-LOK II series with identical wire gauge (10-12 AWG), contact finish (gold at 30.0µin thickness), termination method (crimp), and moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). They function identically in circuit applications.

Q: What is the difference between 770247-4 and 1-770247-0?

A: The primary difference is regulatory compliance. The 1-770247-0 is ROHS3 compliant, while 770247-4 is RoHS non-compliant. Both are supplied in Bulk packaging. The 1-770247-0 should be selected for applications requiring RoHS3 certification.

Q: Why would I choose 770004-4 over 770247-4?

A: The 770004-4 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging, which is suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly operations. The 770247-4 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Choose 770004-4 if your manufacturing process requires tape-and-reel format. Electrical performance is identical.

Q: Are there packaging compatibility concerns when substituting between these parts?

A: Yes. The 770247-4 and 1-770247-0 are supplied in Bulk packaging, while 770004-4 is supplied in Cut Tape format. Bulk packaging is suitable for manual assembly and kitting operations, while Cut Tape is designed for automated assembly lines. Verify your assembly process requirements before selecting a substitute based on packaging format.

Q: Do all three parts have the same moisture sensitivity rating?

A: Yes. All three parts have Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1, which indicates unlimited shelf life without special moisture control requirements.

Q: What is the inventory status for each part?

A: 770247-4 has 781 pieces in stock, 1-770247-0 has 2123 pieces in stock, and 770004-4 has 14190 pieces in stock. The 770004-4 offers the highest inventory availability.

Q: Can I use these parts interchangeably in existing connector assemblies?

A: Yes, provided the connector housing and pin configuration are compatible with the Universal MATE-N-LOK II series. All three socket contacts are mechanically and electrically equivalent for this series.
