CTAPR2-2-X Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CTAPR2-2-X is a C-style copper compression connector terminal manufactured by Panduit Corp, designed for crimp termination of solid conductors in the 2-6 AWG wire gauge range. This open band crimpband connector is a non-insulated terminal component used in electrical termination applications requiring reliable mechanical and electrical connections.

The CTAPR2-2-X is currently discontinued at DiGi Electronics. Identification of equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity and ensure uninterrupted component availability for production, maintenance, and repair applications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CTAPR2-2-X is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Terminal Type: Must be Crimpband, Open Band configuration
  • Wire Gauge Compatibility: Must support 2-6 AWG solid conductor range
  • Termination Method: Must utilize crimp termination technology
  • Insulation Classification: Must be non-insulated
  • Manufacturer Consistency: Panduit Corp product line
  • Regulatory Compliance: ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status

The CTAPR2-2-L meets all substitution criteria as a direct equivalent within the CTAPR series, maintaining identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering active product status and improved inventory availability.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The CTAPR2-2-L is a direct functional equivalent to the CTAPR2-2-X and is suitable for substitution in all applications requiring 2-6 AWG crimp termination using open band crimpband connectors.

Substitution Basis:

The CTAPR2-2-L maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. Both components are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity classification, ensuring equivalent performance in environmental and regulatory contexts.

Availability Advantage:

The CTAPR2-2-L carries active product status with higher inventory availability (1074 pieces versus 808 pieces), providing improved supply chain continuity and reduced lead time risk for ongoing production requirements.

Packaging Consideration:

The CTAPR2-2-L is supplied in bulk packaging, which may require evaluation against existing procurement and storage protocols for the original CTAPR2-2-X component.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the CTAPR2-2-X and CTAPR2-2-L electrically and mechanically identical?

A: Yes. Both components are non-insulated crimpband open band connectors with identical wire gauge range (2-6 AWG), termination method (crimp), and regulatory compliance status (ROHS3, REACH unaffected). They are functionally equivalent for all specified applications.

Q: Why is the CTAPR2-2-X discontinued?

A: The CTAPR2-2-X is discontinued at DiGi Electronics. The CTAPR2-2-L remains in active production within the same CTAPR series and serves as the current equivalent offering.

Q: What is the difference between the packaging of these two parts?

A: The CTAPR2-2-X packaging specification is not provided in the technical data. The CTAPR2-2-L is supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging differences do not affect electrical or mechanical performance and should be evaluated based on procurement and inventory management requirements.

Q: Can the CTAPR2-2-L be used as a direct replacement in existing designs?

A: Yes. The CTAPR2-2-L is a direct substitute for the CTAPR2-2-X. All electrical, mechanical, and regulatory parameters are equivalent, permitting direct substitution without design modification.

Q: Are there any environmental or compliance differences between these components?

A: No. Both components carry identical environmental and regulatory certifications: ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity level.

Q: What wire gauges are supported by the CTAPR2-2-L?

A: The CTAPR2-2-L supports solid conductor termination in the 2-6 AWG wire gauge range, identical to the CTAPR2-2-X specification.
