Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 8058-1G24 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Functional Compatibility Parameters:

• Type: Transistor, TO-5 socket
• Number of Positions: 4 (Round)
• Current Rating: 3 A minimum
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

• Contact Material: Beryllium Copper or Brass acceptable for mating contacts
• Contact Finish: Gold or Tin acceptable for mating contacts
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -55°C to 125°C or equivalent

Mechanical Compatibility Parameters:

• Mounting Type: Panel Mount or Chassis Mount acceptable
• Termination: Solder Cup or Solder acceptable
• Housing Material: PTFE or Polyester, Glass Filled acceptable

The Keystone Electronics 4591 qualifies as a substitute based on matching the core functional requirements: 4-position TO-5 transistor socket with 3 A current rating, unlimited moisture sensitivity, and compatible contact materials and termination methods.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Keystone Electronics 4591 is an active substitute for the obsolete TE Connectivity 8058-1G24. Both components share identical functional specifications for 4-position TO-5 transistor socket applications with unlimited moisture sensitivity classification.

Compliance Considerations:

The 4591 provides enhanced regulatory compliance through ROHS3 certification and REACH unaffected status, compared to the 8058-1G24 which carries REACH affected designation. Both components maintain EAR99 export classification.

Design Integration Factors:

The primary differences between these components are mounting configuration (panel mount versus chassis mount) and contact finish (gold versus tin). The 4591 incorporates a closed frame feature and polyester glass-filled housing material, contrasting with the PTFE housing of the 8058-1G24. These differences require mechanical design verification to confirm compatibility within the target application's physical constraints and mounting requirements.

The 4591 is currently in active production with 2917 units in stock, ensuring long-term availability compared to the obsolete status of the 8058-1G24.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Keystone Electronics 4591 directly replace the TE Connectivity 8058-1G24 in existing designs?

A: The 4591 is functionally equivalent for TO-5 transistor socket applications. However, mounting type differs (chassis mount versus panel mount), requiring mechanical design review to confirm compatibility with the target PCB or chassis configuration.

Q: What are the key differences in contact materials between these two parts?

A: The 8058-1G24 uses beryllium copper mating contacts with gold finish, while the 4591 uses brass mating contacts with tin finish. Both material combinations are acceptable for transistor socket applications and provide equivalent electrical performance for the specified 3 ampere current rating.

Q: Are there temperature or current rating limitations with the 4591 substitute?

A: The 8058-1G24 specifies -55°C to 125°C operating temperature and 3 ampere current rating. The 4591 does not provide published specifications for these parameters. Applications requiring confirmed temperature or current specifications should contact the manufacturer directly.

Q: What is the significance of the closed frame feature on the 4591?

A: The 4591 incorporates a closed frame design, which is a mechanical feature that does not affect electrical compatibility. This feature may influence physical mounting characteristics and should be evaluated against application-specific mechanical requirements.

Q: How do the housing materials affect component selection?

A: The 8058-1G24 uses PTFE housing while the 4591 uses polyester glass-filled material. The 4591 housing carries UL94 V-0 flammability rating. Housing material selection depends on application-specific environmental and flammability requirements.

Q: What is the inventory status for these components?

A: The 8058-1G24 is obsolete with 710 units in stock. The 4591 is active production with 2917 units in stock, providing superior long-term availability for new designs and ongoing procurement.
