ASF62RG Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ASF62RG is a slide switch manufactured by TE Connectivity ALCOSWITCH Switches, configured as a 6PDT (six-pole double-throw) through-hole, right-angle component. This switch is rated for 0.4VA at 20V AC/DC operation with a screwdriver slot actuator and gold-plated copper alloy contacts. The ASF62RG is classified as obsolete, making identification of equivalent and substitute parts necessary for ongoing design support and component procurement.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ASF62RG is determined by strict alignment of electrical and mechanical parameters. The primary substitute, part number 6-1825011-4, maintains complete compatibility across all critical specifications: identical 6PDT circuit configuration, shorting contact timing, 0.4VA current rating, 20V AC/DC voltage rating, through-hole right-angle mounting, PC pin termination, copper alloy contacts with gold finish, and matching mechanical and electrical life ratings of 15,000 cycles. The only difference is packaging format (tube versus unspecified original packaging) and active product status.

The secondary substitute, part number 4-1825010-2, represents a different product category and does not qualify as a direct equivalent. This part operates at 300mA AC current with 115V AC voltage rating, uses surface mount technology rather than through-hole mounting, employs gull wing termination instead of PC pins, and features silver contact finish instead of gold. These differences preclude its use as a functional substitute for the ASF62RG in applications requiring the original electrical and mechanical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The part number 6-1825011-4 is the direct equivalent for the obsolete ASF62RG. This substitute maintains identical electrical performance (0.4VA at 20V AC/DC), mechanical configuration (6PDT through-hole right-angle with PC pin termination), contact specifications (copper alloy with gold finish), and operational life ratings (15,000 cycles mechanical and electrical). The primary distinction is product status: 6-1825011-4 is active and currently manufactured, whereas ASF62RG is obsolete. Packaging is supplied in tube format for 6-1825011-4.

The part number 4-1825010-2 does not qualify as a substitute for the ASF62RG. Fundamental differences in mounting technology (surface mount versus through-hole), termination style (gull wing versus PC pin), electrical ratings (300mA at 115V AC versus 0.4VA at 20V AC/DC), and contact finish (silver versus gold) make this component unsuitable for applications requiring ASF62RG specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 6-1825011-4 be used as a direct replacement for ASF62RG in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 6-1825011-4 maintains identical electrical ratings (0.4VA at 20V AC/DC), circuit configuration (6PDT), contact timing (shorting MBB), mounting type (through-hole right-angle), and termination style (PC pin). Both components operate across the same temperature range (-40°C to 80°C) and provide equivalent mechanical and electrical life (15,000 cycles each).

Q: What is the primary reason ASF62RG requires substitution?

A: The ASF62RG is classified as obsolete. The 6-1825011-4 is the active equivalent from the same manufacturer series (ASF), ensuring continued availability and manufacturing support.

Q: Why is 4-1825010-2 not suitable as a substitute?

A: The 4-1825010-2 belongs to a different product series (ASE) and uses surface mount technology with gull wing termination, whereas the ASF62RG requires through-hole mounting with PC pin termination. Additionally, the electrical ratings differ significantly: 4-1825010-2 is rated for 300mA at 115V AC, while ASF62RG operates at 0.4VA at 20V AC/DC. These differences prevent functional compatibility.

Q: Are there packaging differences between ASF62RG and 6-1825011-4?

A: The 6-1825011-4 is supplied in tube packaging. The original ASF62RG packaging format is not specified in available documentation. Tube packaging is standard for component distribution and does not affect electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Do both parts share the same actuator specifications?

A: Yes. Both ASF62RG and 6-1825011-4 feature screwdriver slot actuators with flush length, identical switch travel (2.79mm), and matching operating force (950gf).

Q: Are there compliance or certification differences?

A: Both ASF62RG and 6-1825011-4 share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.50.9050) classifications. RoHS status is not applicable for both components. REACH status is vendor undefined for both parts.
