Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TE Connectivity 8058-1G59 are identified based on strict equivalence of the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Criteria:

• Type: Transistor, TO-5 socket
• Number of Positions: 3 (Round)
• Contact Finish - Mating: Gold
• Contact Material - Mating: Beryllium Copper
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Termination: Solder

Mechanical Compatibility Criteria:

• Mounting Type: Through Hole
• Features: Closed Frame
• Housing Material: Polyester-based or PTFE

Compliance Criteria:

• RoHS Status: RoHS3 Compliant or RoHS Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The substitute parts listed below meet all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in post contact finish (Tin versus Tin-Lead), post contact finish thickness, termination post length, and housing material composition (PCT Polyester versus PTFE) do not affect functional compatibility for TO-5 transistor socket applications within the specified operating temperature range.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection (TE Connectivity 8058-1G59): The original TE Connectivity part is recommended for applications where PTFE housing material is specified or preferred. This part maintains active production status and RoHS compliance. Current inventory of 723 pieces supports immediate availability.

Direct Substitute (Mill-Max 917-43-103-41-005000): This Mill-Max part provides direct functional equivalence with identical electrical parameters and operating temperature range. The part features ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, providing enhanced regulatory documentation. The Tin post contact finish is suitable for standard solder assembly processes. Termination post length of 0.125" (3.18mm) accommodates standard PCB through-hole depths. Inventory of 1917 pieces provides extended availability.

Alternative Substitute (Mill-Max 917-93-103-41-005000): This Mill-Max variant offers equivalent electrical performance with Tin-Lead post contact finish, supporting legacy assembly processes where Tin-Lead compatibility is required. The shorter termination post length of 0.090" (2.29mm) is suitable for applications with reduced PCB thickness or specific board design constraints. ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status apply. Inventory of 1262 pieces supports sustained supply.

Compliance Considerations: All three parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, eliminating special storage or handling requirements. ROHS3 compliance of Mill-Max substitutes exceeds the RoHS Compliant status of the original part. REACH Unaffected status of Mill-Max parts provides regulatory clarity for European applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can Mill-Max 917-43-103-41-005000 be used as a direct replacement for TE Connectivity 8058-1G59?

A: Yes. Both parts are 3-position TO-5 transistor sockets with gold-plated mating contacts, beryllium copper mating contact material, brass post material, closed-frame construction, solder termination, and identical operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C). The primary difference is post contact finish (Tin versus Gold) and housing material (PCT Polyester versus PTFE), neither of which affects functional compatibility in TO-5 socket applications.

Q: What is the difference between Mill-Max 917-43-103-41-005000 and 917-93-103-41-005000?

A: The two Mill-Max parts differ in post contact finish and termination post length. Part 917-43-103-41-005000 features Tin post finish with 0.125" (3.18mm) post length, while 917-93-103-41-005000 features Tin-Lead post finish with 0.090" (2.29mm) post length. Both maintain identical mating contact specifications and operating temperature range. Selection depends on PCB thickness requirements and assembly process compatibility.

Q: Does the difference in housing material (PTFE versus PCT Polyester) affect socket performance?

A: No. Both PTFE and PCT Polyester housing materials are suitable for TO-5 transistor socket applications within the specified operating temperature range of -55°C ~ 125°C. Housing material selection does not affect electrical performance, contact retention, or thermal characteristics for this component category.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The TE Connectivity 8058-1G59 is RoHS Compliant. Both Mill-Max substitutes (917-43-103-41-005000 and 917-93-103-41-005000) are ROHS3 Compliant, which represents an enhanced compliance standard. All parts meet RoHS requirements for restricted substance elimination.

Q: What is the significance of the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) rating of 1?

A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates that these components have no moisture sensitivity restrictions. No special storage conditions, dry-pack requirements, or bake-out procedures are required prior to assembly. The parts can be stored and handled under standard warehouse conditions.

Q: Can the post contact finish difference (Gold, Tin, or Tin-Lead) affect solder joint reliability?

A: Post contact finish does not affect solder joint reliability for through-hole assembly. All three finishes (Gold, Tin, and Tin-Lead) are compatible with standard solder assembly processes. Post finish selection is driven by assembly process compatibility and legacy system requirements rather than performance considerations.

Q: What is the current rating specification for these sockets?

A: The Mill-Max substitutes specify a 3 A current rating. The TE Connectivity original part does not provide a current rating specification in the available documentation. For applications requiring current rating verification, the 3 A specification of Mill-Max parts provides a defined electrical limit.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between the original and substitute parts?

A: The TE Connectivity part packaging is not specified in the available documentation. Both Mill-Max substitutes are supplied in Tube packaging. Packaging format may affect order quantities and handling procedures but does not affect component functionality or performance.
