Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 94010-472H is determined by strict alignment with the following core parameters: 72-position count, 2-row configuration, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch spacing, through-hole mounting, solder termination, push-pull fastening, and board-to-board connectivity. All identified substitutes maintain these critical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Variations among substitutes are permitted in the following areas:

• Contact finish (tin or gold plating)
• Contact material composition (phosphor bronze or brass)
• Insulation material (polyester glass-filled or polybutylene terephthalate)
• Overall contact length and insulation height (within mechanical compatibility ranges)
• Operating temperature range
• RoHS compliance status
• Packaging format (bulk or tube)
• Series designation (BERGSTIK® II, AMPMODU Mod II, BBD, or TSW)

All substitutes maintain MSL 1 rating, UL94 V-0 flammability compliance, and identical HTSUS classification (8536.69.4040).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All identified substitutes maintain active product status and are suitable for direct replacement in applications where the core electrical and mechanical specifications are met. Selection among substitutes should be based on the following criteria:

RoHS Compliance Requirements: The 94010-472H is RoHS non-compliant. All substitute parts (3-826632-6, BBD-136-G-A, BBD-136-G-B, BBD-136-T-B, TSW-136-24-T-D) are ROHS3 compliant. Applications subject to RoHS directives must use one of the compliant substitutes.

Operating Temperature Range: The 94010-472H does not specify an operating temperature range. Samtec BBD series parts (BBD-136-G-A, BBD-136-G-B, BBD-136-T-B) support -55°C to 125°C. TE Connectivity 3-826632-6 supports -65°C to 105°C. TSW-136-24-T-D supports -55°C to 105°C. Applications requiring extended low-temperature operation should prioritize the TE Connectivity part.

Contact Finish Selection: Tin-finished contacts (94010-472H, BBD-136-T-B, TSW-136-24-T-D) are suitable for standard applications. Gold-finished contacts (3-826632-6, BBD-136-G-A, BBD-136-G-B) provide enhanced corrosion resistance and are preferred for high-reliability or harsh-environment applications.

Contact Shape Compatibility: The 94010-472H and TSW-136-24-T-D feature square contacts. Samtec BBD series parts feature circular contacts. Contact shape differences may affect mating force and insertion characteristics; mechanical compatibility with mating connectors must be confirmed.

Insulation Material: PBT insulation (3-826632-6, TSW-136-24-T-D) offers superior chemical resistance compared to polyester glass-filled insulation (BBD series). Applications in chemically aggressive environments should prioritize PBT-insulated options.

Packaging Format: Bulk packaging (94010-472H, 3-826632-6, TSW-136-24-T-D) is suitable for high-volume assembly. Tube packaging (BBD series) may be preferred for lower-volume or manual assembly operations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use any of these substitute parts as a direct replacement for the 94010-472H?

A: All identified substitutes maintain the critical specifications: 72 positions, 2 rows, 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch, through-hole mounting, solder termination, and push-pull fastening. Direct mechanical and electrical substitution is supported. However, contact shape differences (square vs. circular) and insulation material variations may require verification of compatibility with mating connectors and application-specific environmental requirements.

Q: What is the primary reason to consider substitutes for the 94010-472H?

A: The main driver for substitution is RoHS compliance. The 94010-472H is RoHS non-compliant, while all identified substitutes are ROHS3 compliant. Applications subject to RoHS directives or customer requirements must transition to one of the compliant alternatives. Secondary reasons include extended operating temperature ranges, enhanced contact finishes for reliability, and supply chain availability.

Q: Are there differences in contact performance between tin and gold finishes?

A: Tin-finished contacts (94010-472H, BBD-136-T-B, TSW-136-24-T-D) are suitable for standard applications with moderate environmental exposure. Gold-finished contacts (3-826632-6, BBD-136-G-A, BBD-136-G-B) provide superior corrosion resistance and lower contact resistance, making them preferable for high-reliability applications, extended storage periods, or environments with high humidity or corrosive atmospheres.

Q: Does the difference between square and circular contact shapes affect compatibility?

A: Contact shape affects mating force, insertion characteristics, and mechanical fit. The 94010-472H and TSW-136-24-T-D use square contacts, while Samtec BBD series parts use circular contacts. Compatibility depends on the mating connector design. Mechanical verification with the specific mating connector is required before substitution.

Q: What is the significance of the operating temperature range difference?

A: The 94010-472H does not specify an operating temperature range. Samtec BBD series parts support -55°C to 125°C, providing the widest high-temperature capability. TE Connectivity 3-826632-6 supports -65°C to 105°C, offering superior low-temperature performance. TSW-136-24-T-D supports -55°C to 105°C. Selection should match the application's thermal requirements.

Q: Are there packaging considerations for high-volume assembly?

A: Bulk packaging (94010-472H, 3-826632-6, TSW-136-24-T-D) is optimized for automated assembly and high-volume production. Tube packaging (BBD series) is suitable for lower-volume or manual assembly operations. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical performance but may influence assembly process efficiency and cost.

Q: What insulation material should I choose for chemically aggressive environments?

A: PBT (polybutylene terephthalate) insulation, used in 3-826632-6 and TSW-136-24-T-D, offers superior chemical resistance compared to polyester glass-filled insulation used in the BBD series. For applications exposed to solvents, oils, or other chemical agents, PBT-insulated options are recommended.

Q: Is the TE Connectivity 3-826632-6 suitable for board-to-board and cable applications?

A: Yes. The 3-826632-6 is designated as a Header, Breakaway connector supporting both board-to-board and cable connectivity. This dual-style capability provides additional application flexibility compared to the 94010-472H, which is specified for board-to-board applications only.
