Equivalent & Substitute Parts for Grayhill 95C06B4T Tactile Switch

Part Overview

The Grayhill 95C06B4T is an active SPST-NO tactile switch designed for through-hole mounting applications requiring low-current switching at 12VDC. This component provides momentary contact operation with tactile feedback and is suitable for control panel interfaces and user input applications. The part is ROHS3 compliant and carries unlimited moisture sensitivity rating, making it suitable for standard industrial and commercial environments.

Alternative equivalent parts may be required due to inventory constraints, specific mechanical envelope requirements, or voltage rating specifications for particular circuit designs.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 95C06B4T is determined by strict adherence to the following parameters:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

• Circuit configuration must be SPST-NO
• Switch function must be Off-Mom (momentary contact)
• Mounting type must be Through Hole with PC Pin termination
• Actuator orientation must be Top Actuated
• Contact rating must support 0.05A minimum at operating voltage
• RoHS3 compliance required

Secondary Compatibility Criteria:

• Operating temperature range must encompass the application environment
• Mechanical life rating must be sufficient for intended duty cycle
• Outline dimensions must fit within available PCB space
• Moisture sensitivity level must be compatible with storage and handling conditions

The substitute parts listed below meet these criteria with documented variations in specific parameters that do not affect functional equivalence within the defined electrical and mechanical constraints.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

95C06B4T Primary Application: Select the Grayhill 95C06B4T for applications operating at 12VDC with mechanical life requirements up to 500,000 cycles. This part is active in production with full ROHS3 and REACH compliance. The 260gf operating force and 5.00mm actuator height provide standard tactile feedback characteristics.

1825910-7 Substitution Criteria: The TE Connectivity 1825910-7 is electrically equivalent for circuits operating at 24VDC. This part maintains identical SPST-NO circuit configuration, momentary function, and PC pin termination. The 1825910-7 provides extended operating temperature range (-35°C ~ 85°C) compared to the 95C06B4T. However, mechanical life is rated at 100,000 cycles, which is lower than the primary part. This substitute is suitable only for applications where the lower cycle rating is acceptable and 24VDC operation is required. All compliance certifications are maintained.

TL6100CF130QP Substitution Criteria: The E-Switch TL6100CF130QP is functionally equivalent for 12VDC applications and provides the highest mechanical life rating at 1,000,000 cycles. This part maintains SPST-NO circuit configuration, momentary function, and through-hole PC pin termination. The TL6100CF130QP features a lower operating force (130gf versus 260gf) and increased switch travel (0.50mm versus 0.25mm), resulting in different tactile characteristics. The larger outline dimensions (7.20mm x 7.20mm) and increased actuator height (6.90mm) require verification of available PCB space. All compliance certifications are maintained. This substitute is suitable for applications requiring extended mechanical life and where the modified tactile response and physical envelope are compatible with the design.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1825910-7 be used in a 12VDC circuit designed for the 95C06B4T?

A: The 1825910-7 is rated for 0.05A @ 24VDC. While the contact rating at 12VDC would be within safe operating limits, this part is specified for 24VDC operation. Use in 12VDC circuits is not recommended without circuit design verification.

Q: What is the primary difference between the TL6100CF130QP and the 95C06B4T?

A: The TL6100CF130QP has a lower operating force (130gf versus 260gf), increased switch travel (0.50mm versus 0.25mm), larger physical outline (7.20mm x 7.20mm versus 6.20mm x 6.20mm), and significantly higher mechanical life (1,000,000 cycles versus 500,000 cycles). These differences affect tactile feedback and PCB space requirements.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. The 95C06B4T, 1825910-7, and TL6100CF130QP are all ROHS3 compliant with REACH Unaffected status.

Q: Which substitute part has the best mechanical life rating?

A: The E-Switch TL6100CF130QP is rated for 1,000,000 cycles, compared to 500,000 cycles for the 95C06B4T and 100,000 cycles for the 1825910-7.

Q: Do all parts use the same termination style?

A: Yes. All three parts use PC Pin termination for through-hole mounting.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these parts?

A: All three parts carry MSL rating 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage and handling.

Q: Can the TL6100CF130QP be used in space-constrained applications?

A: The TL6100CF130QP has a larger outline (7.20mm x 7.20mm) and taller actuator height (6.90mm) compared to the 95C06B4T (6.20mm x 6.20mm outline, 5.00mm height). PCB layout and clearance must be verified before substitution.

Q: Which part operates over the widest temperature range?

A: The TL6100CF130QP operates from -40°C to 85°C, followed by the 1825910-7 at -35°C to 85°C. The 95C06B4T operates from -25°C to 70°C.
