JRC-SC-212 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The JRC-SC-212 is a socket contact for circular connectors manufactured by Hirose Electric Co., Ltd. This component is designed for 16-20 AWG wire applications with a 1.6mm contact size and crimp termination. The part is currently classified as obsolete, making identification of suitable substitutes essential for ongoing system maintenance and new design implementations. The JRC-SC-212 remains available in inventory (788 pcs), but active alternatives should be evaluated for long-term supply chain reliability.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the JRC-SC-212 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Contact Type: Socket
• Contact Size: 1.6mm
• Wire Gauge Range: 16-20 AWG
• Contact Termination: Crimp
• Contact Material: Copper Alloy
• Contact Finish: Silver
• Series: JR

The JRC-SC-112 qualifies as a direct substitute because it maintains identical specifications across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Both parts share the same contact geometry, termination method, material composition, and wire gauge compatibility. The primary distinction is product status: JRC-SC-112 is active, whereas JRC-SC-212 is obsolete.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The JRC-SC-112 is the direct functional equivalent of the JRC-SC-212. Both parts are manufactured by Hirose Electric Co., Ltd. within the JR series and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications for socket contact applications in the 16-20 AWG range.

For new designs and ongoing procurement, the JRC-SC-112 is the appropriate selection due to its active product status and RoHS compliance certification. The JRC-SC-212, while currently in stock, carries obsolete designation and lacks documented RoHS compliance status.

Both parts share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.90.4000) classifications, confirming regulatory equivalence for export and tariff purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can JRC-SC-112 be used as a direct replacement for JRC-SC-212 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The JRC-SC-112 maintains identical contact geometry, termination method, wire gauge compatibility, and material specifications. No design modifications are required for substitution.

Q: What is the difference between JRC-SC-212 and JRC-SC-112?

A: The primary differences are product status (JRC-SC-212 is obsolete; JRC-SC-112 is active) and RoHS compliance documentation (JRC-SC-112 is RoHS Compliant). All electrical and mechanical parameters are identical.

Q: Does packaging differ between these parts?

A: Yes. JRC-SC-212 packaging is not specified in available documentation. JRC-SC-112 is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specifications.

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences?

A: Both parts share identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications. JRC-SC-112 carries explicit RoHS Compliant certification, while JRC-SC-212 RoHS status is not documented.

Q: What wire gauges are supported by these socket contacts?

A: Both parts support 16-20 AWG wire gauge range with 1.6mm contact size and crimp termination.

Q: Is the JRC-SC-212 still available for purchase?

A: Current inventory shows 788 pcs of JRC-SC-212 in stock. However, due to obsolete status, long-term availability is not guaranteed. JRC-SC-112 (714 pcs in stock) is recommended for new procurement.
