BS-22-10-P Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The BS-22-10-P is an insulated spade terminal connector manufactured by 3M, designed for crimp termination of 14-16 AWG wire onto a 10 stud. This flanged terminal features a blue vinyl insulation jacket and tin-plated copper contact material. The part is Active in product status and ROHS3 compliant. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are maintained across the same terminal category, enabling procurement flexibility and supply chain continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the BS-22-10-P is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Terminal Type: Flanged configuration
• Stud/Tab Size: 10 Stud (mechanical interface requirement)
• Wire Gauge: 14-16 AWG (electrical and crimp die compatibility)
• Termination Method: Crimp (assembly process compatibility)
• Insulation Type: Insulated vinyl jacket
• Color: Blue (identification and specification requirement)
• Contact Material: Copper, ETP (electrical conductivity)
• Contact Finish: Tin (corrosion resistance and solderability)
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (regulatory requirement)

The substitute part Keystone Electronics 8250 maintains equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters, enabling direct substitution in applications requiring the BS-22-10-P.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the BS-22-10-P and Keystone Electronics 8250 are Active products with ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 rating. Selection between these parts may be based on:

• Inventory availability: BS-22-10-P has 758 pcs in stock; 8250 has 1130 pcs in stock
• Supplier lead time and procurement terms
• Established qualification history within your assembly process
• Cost considerations within your supply chain

Both parts satisfy identical electrical and mechanical requirements for 14-16 AWG crimp termination onto a 10 stud with tin-plated copper contact material and vinyl insulation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Keystone Electronics 8250 be used as a direct replacement for the BS-22-10-P?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical stud size (10 stud), wire gauge (14-16 AWG), termination method (crimp), contact material (copper, ETP), contact finish (tin), and overall dimensions. Both are ROHS3 compliant with MSL Level 1 rating.

Q: What is the significance of the 10 stud specification?

A: The 10 stud size defines the mechanical interface for the ring opening. This parameter must remain constant for the terminal to function in the intended application. Both the BS-22-10-P and 8250 feature identical 10 stud sizing.

Q: Are there dimensional differences between these parts?

A: Overall length and width outer edges are identical at 0.850" (21.59mm) and 0.300" (7.62mm) respectively. The insulation diameter differs slightly (BS-22-10-P: 0.170", 8250: 0.175"), and termination length differs (BS-22-10-P: 0.450", 8250: 0.250"). These variations remain within acceptable tolerances for the 14-16 AWG wire gauge category.

Q: Do both parts support the same wire gauge range?

A: Yes. Both the BS-22-10-P and 8250 are rated for 14-16 AWG wire termination using crimp assembly methods.

Q: What packaging format is available?

A: Both parts are supplied in Bulk packaging.
