TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 794714-3 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 794714-3 is a 6-position rectangular connector housing designed for the Universal MATE-N-LOK series. This receptacle housing accommodates male pin contacts with a 0.250" (6.35mm) pitch and is configured in a 2-row arrangement. The connector is mounted through-hole with crimp termination and locking ramp fastening. The part is currently active in production with 908 pieces in stock inventory. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are maintained across the connector housing specifications, allowing for functional interchangeability in applications where color or minor material grade variations are acceptable.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the 794714-3 are identified based on strict equivalence of core electrical and mechanical parameters. The following parameters must remain constant for substitution eligibility:

• Connector type (Receptacle)
• Contact type (Male Pin)
• Number of positions (6)
• Pitch (0.250" / 6.35mm)
• Number of rows (2)
• Row spacing (0.250" / 6.35mm)
• Mounting type (Through Hole)
• Contact termination (Crimp)
• Fastening type (Locking Ramp)
• Series designation (Universal MATE-N-LOK)
• RoHS compliance status

The substitute part 926682-1 maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in color (Red versus Natural) and insulation material grade (PA versus PA66) do not affect functional interchangeability in applications where these attributes are not design-critical constraints.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 794714-3 and 926682-1 are active production parts with RoHS compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity ratings. The 926682-1 substitute part provides equivalent functionality with an extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C versus -55°C to 105°C), making it suitable for applications requiring higher temperature performance. The primary distinction between these parts is the housing color (Red versus Natural) and the polyamide material grade (PA versus PA66). Selection between these parts should be based on application-specific requirements regarding color coding and thermal operating conditions. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical interface specifications, ensuring direct substitution capability in MATE-N-LOK connector assemblies.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 926682-1 be used as a direct replacement for 794714-3 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 926682-1 maintains identical electrical and mechanical parameters including connector type, position count, pitch, row configuration, mounting method, and termination type. Direct substitution is possible from a functional standpoint.

Q: What is the difference between the Red (794714-3) and Natural (926682-1) housing colors?

A: Color is a visual identifier only and does not affect electrical or mechanical performance. Selection should be based on application requirements for color-coded connector identification or assembly documentation.

Q: Does the material grade difference between PA and PA66 affect compatibility?

A: Both polyamide materials are functionally equivalent for this connector housing application. PA66 (Nylon 6/6) in the 926682-1 provides enhanced thermal stability, reflected in the extended operating temperature range to 125°C.

Q: Are the contact interfaces identical between these two parts?

A: Yes. Both parts accommodate the same male pin contacts with identical pitch (0.250"), row spacing (0.250"), and crimp termination specifications. Contact compatibility is maintained across both housing variants.

Q: What is the significance of the extended temperature range in 926682-1?

A: The 926682-1 operates to 125°C compared to 105°C for the 794714-3. Applications requiring sustained operation at elevated temperatures should specify the 926682-1 to ensure material performance within rated limits.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both 794714-3 and 926682-1 are RoHS compliant with identical MSL ratings of 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.

Q: Can these parts be intermixed in the same assembly?

A: Yes. Since both parts maintain identical mechanical and electrical specifications, they can be used interchangeably within the same connector assembly or application, provided color coding requirements do not restrict usage.
