EV18-P47BK-L Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The EV18-P47BK-L is a StrongHold™ wire pin terminal connector manufactured by Panduit Corp, designed for 18-22 AWG wire applications. This component is classified as a crimp-style insulated terminal with vinyl insulation and tin-plated copper contacts. The part is currently listed as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent alternatives to maintain supply chain continuity for applications requiring this terminal type.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the EV18-P47BK-L is based on strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Wire Gauge Compatibility: Both the main part and substitute must accommodate 18-22 AWG wire to ensure proper crimp engagement and electrical contact.

Pin Diameter: The pin diameter of 0.070" (1.78mm) is a fixed mechanical interface requirement. Substitute parts must maintain this dimension for connector compatibility.

Insulation Specifications: The vinyl insulation material and insulation diameter of 0.145" (3.68mm) define the barrel geometry and must be preserved in substitutes.

Termination Method: Crimp termination is the required assembly process. Only crimp-style terminals qualify as substitutes.

Contact Material and Finish: Copper with tin plating provides the electrical and corrosion resistance properties required. Substitutes must maintain these specifications.

Series Designation: The StrongHold™ series classification indicates the product family and design standard.

The EV18-P47B-L meets all these criteria and is identified as the manufacturer-recommended substitute.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The EV18-P47B-L is the direct substitute for the obsolete EV18-P47BK-L based on manufacturer designation and parameter alignment. The substitute maintains all critical electrical and mechanical specifications required for 18-22 AWG wire pin terminal applications within the StrongHold™ product family.

Product Status Consideration: The EV18-P47B-L carries an Active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain support. The EV18-P47BK-L is obsolete and should not be specified for new designs or replenishment orders.

Compliance Status: The EV18-P47B-L is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement.

Packaging Difference: The substitute is supplied in Bulk packaging, whereas the original part packaging specification was not provided. Procurement should confirm bulk packaging compatibility with assembly and inventory requirements.

Dimensional Variance: The overall length increases from 0.900" to 0.970", and the insulation diameter increases from 0.145" to 0.150". These minor dimensional changes remain within acceptable tolerances for standard connector applications and do not affect functional compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the EV18-P47B-L directly replace the EV18-P47BK-L in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. Both terminals share identical wire gauge (18-22 AWG), pin diameter (0.070"), contact material (copper with tin finish), insulation material (vinyl), and termination method (crimp). The minor dimensional increases in overall length and insulation diameter do not compromise functional compatibility in standard connector applications.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The EV18-P47BK-L is classified as obsolete. The EV18-P47B-L is the manufacturer-recommended active equivalent, ensuring continued availability and compliance with current regulatory standards.

Q: Are there any electrical performance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both terminals are specified for identical wire gauge ranges and use the same contact material and finish. Electrical performance characteristics remain equivalent.

Q: Does the packaging change from the original part affect compatibility?

A: The substitute is supplied in Bulk packaging. Compatibility depends on assembly process requirements and inventory management practices. Confirm bulk packaging meets your procurement and handling specifications.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to the substitute part?

A: The EV18-P47B-L is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component procurement.

Q: Are both parts from the same manufacturer?

A: Yes. Both the EV18-P47BK-L and EV18-P47B-L are manufactured by Panduit Corp and belong to the StrongHold™ series.
