Engineering Selection Recommendations

87024-640CTLF is the direct substitute for the 87024-640CT. Both parts share identical mechanical and electrical specifications. The 87024-640CTLF is active in production, packaged in tube format, and meets current RoHS and REACH compliance requirements. This part is suitable for new designs and ongoing production requiring regulatory compliance.

87024-640LF is the manufacturer-recommended alternative. It maintains all critical mechanical and electrical parameters and is active in production with RoHS and REACH compliance. The primary difference is the absence of the "Pick and Place" feature designation compared to the other variants. This part is appropriate for applications where the Pick and Place feature is not required.

For applications requiring the obsolete 87024-640CT, either 87024-640CTLF or 87024-640LF provides functional equivalence. Selection between these two should be based on specific application requirements regarding the Pick and Place feature and packaging preferences.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 87024-640CTLF and 87024-640LF be used interchangeably with 87024-640CT?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical connector type, position count, pitch, row configuration, mounting type, contact finish specifications, insulation material, and flammability rating. The mechanical and electrical interfaces are equivalent.

Q: What is the difference between 87024-640CTLF and 87024-640LF?

A: Both parts are functionally equivalent in terms of mating and mounting specifications. The 87024-640CTLF includes a "Pick and Place" feature designation, while 87024-640LF does not. Both are packaged in tube format and meet current compliance standards.
