LCAS1-14F-E Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LCAS1-14F-E is a rectangular tongue terminal connector manufactured by Panduit Corp, designed for 1 AWG wire gauge applications with a 1/4 stud connection. This component is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinued production and limited availability in the market. The terminal features a non-insulated copper construction with electro-tin contact finish, suitable for free-hanging and right-angle mounting configurations. Due to its obsolete status, identification of active equivalent parts is necessary to ensure continued supply chain access and project continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the LCAS1-14F-E is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part LCA1-14F-E maintains identical specifications for wire gauge (1 AWG), stud size (1/4), terminal type (rectangular tongue), termination method (crimp barrel), dimensional characteristics (tab thickness, barrel dimensions, ring ID), contact material (copper), contact finish (electro-tin), insulation type (non-insulated), and mounting configuration (free hanging, right angle).

The substitution is valid based on the following key parameters:

• Wire Gauge: 1 AWG
• Stud/Tab Size: 1/4 Stud
• Terminal Type: Rectangular Tongue
• Termination: Crimp, Barrel
• Tab Thickness: 0.110" (2.79mm)
• Barrel ID: 0.360" (9.14mm)
• Barrel OD: 0.470" (11.94mm)
• Ring ID: 0.270" (6.86mm)
• Contact Material: Copper
• Contact Finish: Electro-Tin
• Insulation: Non-Insulated
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line), Right Angle
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LCA1-14F-E serves as a direct functional equivalent to the LCAS1-14F-E. All critical electrical and mechanical parameters are identical across both components. The primary distinction is product status: the LCAS1-14F-E is obsolete, while the LCA1-14F-E maintains active production status.

Selection of the LCA1-14F-E is supported by the following factors:

• Full parameter equivalence across all specified dimensions and electrical characteristics
• Active product status ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability
• Higher inventory availability (1269 pcs versus 642 pcs)
• Identical RoHS3 compliance certification
• Identical REACH status classification
• Identical export control classification (EAR99)
• Identical tariff classification (HTSUS 8536.90.4000)

The LCA1-14F-E is suitable for direct replacement in applications currently utilizing the LCAS1-14F-E without modification to circuit design, assembly procedures, or performance specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
