Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 927856-2 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Socket contact configuration (Pin or Socket designation)
• Crimp termination method
• Tin contact finish
• Wire gauge compatibility range
• Rectangular connector category
• Base product family alignment

The 927856-2 accepts substitutes that maintain socket functionality, crimp termination, and tin finish specifications. Wire gauge ranges must overlap or extend the original 14-17 AWG specification to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility. All substitute parts must originate from the TE Connectivity AMP Connectors manufacturer line to maintain connector system integrity.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

927856-1 (MFR Recommended Substitute)

The 927856-1 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete 927856-2. Both parts share the base product number 927856 and maintain identical socket contact, crimp termination, and tin finish specifications. The 927856-1 operates with an expanded wire gauge range of 13-17 AWG, which encompasses the original 14-17 AWG specification. This part carries active product status and holds RoHS Compliant certification with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), providing superior compliance and availability compared to the obsolete original part.

927857-2 (Similar Alternative)

The 927857-2 provides an alternative socket contact option within the Junior Timer series. This part maintains socket configuration, crimp termination, and tin finish with the same 13-17 AWG wire gauge range as the 927856-1. The 927857-2 carries active product status and ROHS3 Compliant certification. The primary distinction is the base product number change from 927856 to 927857, indicating a different connector family variant.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 927856-1 directly replace the 927856-2?

A: Yes. Both parts are socket contacts with crimp termination and tin finish. The 927856-1 wire gauge range of 13-17 AWG fully encompasses the original 14-17 AWG specification. The manufacturer designates 927856-1 as the recommended substitute.

Q: What is the significance of the wire gauge difference between 927856-2 (14-17 AWG) and 927856-1 (13-17 AWG)?

A: The 927856-1 extends the lower wire gauge limit to 13 AWG while maintaining the upper limit at 17 AWG. This expanded range provides compatibility with a broader conductor size spectrum while remaining compatible with the original 14-17 AWG applications.

Q: Why is the 927856-2 listed as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence indicates the part is no longer manufactured or supported by TE Connectivity. The 927856-1 serves as the active replacement within the same product family.

Q: What is the difference between 927856-1 and 927857-2?

A: Both parts function as socket contacts with crimp termination and tin finish. The primary difference is the base product number: 927856-1 belongs to the 927856 family, while 927857-2 belongs to the 927857 family. Both are Junior Timer series components with active status.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 927856-1 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging. Packaging information for 927856-2 and 927857-2 is not specified in the available data.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to these substitutes?

A: The 927856-1 holds RoHS Compliant certification with MSL 1 (Unlimited). The 927857-2 holds ROHS3 Compliant certification with MSL 1 (Unlimited). Both parts carry EAR99 ECCN classification and 8536.90.4000 HTSUS code.
