Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 87606-405 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Connector type (Receptacle)
Contact type (Female Socket)
Number of positions (10)
Pitch - mating (0.100" / 2.54mm)
Number of rows (2)
Row spacing - mating (0.100" / 2.54mm)
Mounting type (Through Hole)
Termination method (Solder)
Fastening type (Push-Pull)
Series designation (Dubox™)
Insulation material (Thermoplastic, Glass Filled)
Material flammability rating (UL94 V-0)

The primary distinction between the main part and its substitute relates to contact finish specification. The 87606-405 uses tin-lead finish on both mating and post contacts, while the substitute part 87606-405LF uses tin finish. Both parts maintain identical mechanical and electrical interface characteristics, dimensional specifications, and material properties.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 87606-405LF serves as the direct substitute for the obsolete 87606-405. Both parts maintain identical mechanical and electrical interface specifications within the Dubox™ series.

The 87606-405LF offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring ongoing manufacturer support and supply chain availability. Additionally, the 87606-405LF achieves RoHS compliance, making it suitable for applications subject to RoHS regulatory requirements. The contact finish change from tin-lead to tin does not alter the mechanical fit, mating characteristics, or electrical performance within the specified interface parameters.

Selection between these parts should be based on regulatory compliance requirements and supply chain considerations. The 87606-405LF is the recommended choice for new designs and ongoing production where RoHS compliance is required or preferred.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the 87606-405 and 87606-405LF mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both connectors maintain identical mechanical dimensions, pitch specifications (0.100" / 2.54mm), row spacing, insulation height, contact length, and mounting characteristics. They are mechanically interchangeable in board-to-board applications.

Q: What is the difference between tin-lead and tin contact finishes?

A: The 87606-405 uses tin-lead contact finish on both mating and post contacts, while the 87606-405LF uses tin finish. Both finishes maintain the same contact finish thickness (78.7µin / 2.00µm) and provide equivalent electrical performance within the connector interface.

Q: Why is the 87606-405 listed as obsolete?

A: The 87606-405 has reached end-of-life status. The 87606-405LF represents the active product continuation within the Dubox™ series, offering improved regulatory compliance through RoHS certification.

Q: Does the RoHS compliance difference affect compatibility?

A: No. RoHS compliance is a regulatory and material composition designation that does not affect the mechanical or electrical compatibility between the two parts. The difference reflects manufacturing process and material sourcing changes in the 87606-405LF.

Q: What packaging is available for the 87606-405LF?

A: The 87606-405LF is supplied in tube packaging.

Q: Can the 87606-405 be used in new designs?

A: The 87606-405 is obsolete and not recommended for new designs. The 87606-405LF should be specified for all new applications to ensure long-term supply chain support and regulatory compliance.
