Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the LCAX1-56H-X is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Specifications:

• Wire gauge: 1 AWG
• Stud size: 5/16
• Barrel dimensions (ID: 0.390", OD: 0.520")
• Ring ID: 0.340"

Mechanical Specifications:

• Terminal type: Rectangular Tongue
• Terminal style: Single Stud Hole
• Tab thickness: 0.120" (3.05mm)
• Termination method: Crimp, Barrel

Material & Finish Specifications:

• Contact material: Copper
• Contact finish: Electro-Tin
• Insulation: Non-Insulated

Compliance & Regulatory:

• RoHS3 Compliant
• REACH Unaffected

The LCAX1-56-X meets all these criteria and is classified as an active product, making it a direct functional equivalent for the obsolete LCAX1-56H-X.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LCAX1-56-X is the direct substitute for the obsolete LCAX1-56H-X. Both components share identical electrical, mechanical, and material specifications within the Pan-Lug™ series. The primary distinction is product status: LCAX1-56H-X is obsolete while LCAX1-56-X is active and currently in production.

Selection of LCAX1-56-X is supported by:

• Full compliance with ROHS3 regulations
• REACH unaffected status
• Active manufacturing status ensuring supply availability
• Identical dimensional and electrical parameters
• Same base product number (LCAX) confirming design lineage

The LCAX1-56-X is available in bulk packaging with 1143 pieces in current inventory, providing supply continuity for applications previously specified with LCAX1-56H-X.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can LCAX1-56-X directly replace LCAX1-56H-X in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both components are identical in wire gauge (1 AWG), stud size (5/16), barrel dimensions, tab thickness, termination method, contact material, and contact finish. The LCAX1-56-X is the active production equivalent.

Q: What is the difference between LCAX1-56H-X and LCAX1-56-X?

A: The primary difference is product status. LCAX1-56H-X is obsolete, while LCAX1-56-X is active. The "-H-X" designation in the original part number indicates a historical variant. Both components share identical specifications for electrical and mechanical function.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both components are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting identical regulatory requirements.

Q: What packaging is available for the substitute part?

A: LCAX1-56-X is supplied in bulk packaging with 1143 pieces currently in stock.

Q: Does the mounting type differ between these components?

A: LCAX1-56H-X specifies free hanging (in-line) with 45° angle mounting. LCAX1-56-X specifies free hanging (in-line) mounting without the 45° angle designation. Both are suitable for in-line applications with the same stud connection.

Q: Are the barrel and ring dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both components have barrel ID of 0.390" (9.91mm), barrel OD of 0.520" (13.21mm), and ring ID of 0.340" (8.64mm).
