TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 917067-1 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors 917067-1 is a tab contact connector designed for rectangular connector applications. This component is classified as a crimp-style terminal with tin finish, engineered for wire gauges between 18-22 AWG. The part maintains Active product status and is fully RoHS3 compliant. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are required for system compatibility, inventory availability, or supply chain continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 917067-1 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

• Wire gauge range: 18-22 AWG
• Contact finish: Tin
• Contact termination method: Crimp

Compliance & Environmental Parameters:

• RoHS3 compliance status
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (Unlimited)
• ECCN classification: EAR99

Mechanical Compatibility Parameters:

• Rectangular connector category
• Contact type configuration (Tab or Pin)

The substitute part IL-AG5-PC1-5000 satisfies all electrical and compliance requirements. The primary distinction is the contact type (Pin versus Tab) and packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel). These differences do not prevent functional substitution in applications where the connector interface accommodates pin-type contacts.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

917067-1 Selection Criteria:

• Primary choice for Multi-Lock series applications requiring tab-type contacts
• Tape & Reel packaging suitable for high-volume automated assembly processes
• Active product status with established supply chain
• RoHS3 and EAR99 compliance for regulated markets

IL-AG5-PC1-5000 Selection Criteria:

• Applicable when pin-type contact configuration is compatible with connector housing
• Cut Tape packaging appropriate for lower-volume or manual assembly operations
• Equivalent electrical performance across 18-22 AWG wire gauge range
• REACH Unaffected status provides additional regulatory clarity
• Higher inventory availability (1,000,200 pieces) supports extended lead-time requirements

Both parts satisfy identical compliance requirements (RoHS3, EAR99, MSL 1) and electrical specifications (wire gauge, contact finish, crimp termination). Selection between these parts depends on connector housing compatibility and packaging requirements for the specific application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can IL-AG5-PC1-5000 directly replace 917067-1 in existing assemblies?

A: Functional replacement depends on connector housing design. The 917067-1 tab contact interfaces with receptacle cavities designed for tab insertion. The IL-AG5-PC1-5000 pin contact requires housing cavities configured for pin acceptance. Connector housing compatibility must be verified before substitution.

Q: Are the electrical specifications identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts support 18-22 AWG wire gauges, employ crimp termination, and feature tin contact finish. Electrical performance across the specified wire gauge range is equivalent.

Q: What is the significance of the packaging difference (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape)?

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment and high-volume production. Cut Tape (CT) packaging is suitable for manual assembly, lower-volume applications, or component kitting. The packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both 917067-1 and IL-AG5-PC1-5000 are RoHS3 compliant, classified as EAR99, and assigned identical HTSUS codes (8536.90.4000). Both carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) ratings. The IL-AG5-PC1-5000 additionally specifies REACH Unaffected status.

Q: What inventory considerations apply to these parts?

A: The 917067-1 maintains 1,088 pieces in stock. The IL-AG5-PC1-5000 has significantly higher availability at 1,000,200 pieces. For applications with extended lead-time requirements or high-volume demand, the IL-AG5-PC1-5000 provides superior supply continuity.

Q: Are there any mechanical compatibility issues between these parts?

A: The primary mechanical difference is contact type (tab versus pin). Both parts are rectangular connectors with identical wire gauge capacity and crimp termination. Connector housing cavity design determines whether tab or pin contacts are appropriate for the application.
