Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the LCAX450-58H-6 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Wire Gauge Compatibility: The substitute part must support 450 MCM (kcmil) wire gauge to maintain electrical performance in the intended circuit.

Stud/Tab Size: The 5/8 stud dimension is a mechanical interface requirement that must be preserved for proper mounting and connection integrity.

Terminal Type and Termination Method: Rectangular tongue configuration with crimp barrel termination ensures compatibility with existing assembly processes and mating components.

Electrical and Mechanical Dimensions: Barrel ID (0.920"), Barrel OD (1.190"), Ring ID (0.660"), and tab thickness (0.260") must remain constant to ensure proper fit and electrical contact.

Material and Finish Specifications: Copper contact material with electro-tin finish maintains electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance requirements.

Regulatory Compliance: ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status must be maintained for applications subject to environmental regulations.

The LCAX450-58-6 meets all these criteria and qualifies as a direct substitute for the LCAX450-58H-6.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LCAX450-58-6 is the qualified substitute for the LCAX450-58H-6 based on the following engineering criteria:

Electrical Equivalence: All critical electrical parameters including wire gauge (450 MCM), barrel dimensions, ring ID, and contact material specifications are identical between the main part and substitute.

Mechanical Compatibility: Stud size, tab thickness, and mounting interface dimensions are preserved, ensuring direct compatibility with existing assembly fixtures and mating components.

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying environmental and regulatory requirements for applications in regulated industries.

Product Status Advantage: The substitute part LCAX450-58-6 carries active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain support, whereas the main part is obsolete. This transition provides long-term procurement reliability.

Functional Differences: The substitute part specifies free hanging (in-line) mounting without the 45° angle designation present in the main part. This represents a functional simplification that maintains compatibility with standard mounting applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can LCAX450-58-6 be used as a direct replacement for LCAX450-58H-6?

A: Yes. The LCAX450-58-6 is a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent. All critical parameters including wire gauge, stud size, barrel dimensions, contact material, and finish specifications are identical. The substitute part is currently in active production status.

Q: What is the difference between the mounting types listed for these parts?

A: The main part LCAX450-58H-6 specifies free hanging (in-line) with 45° angle mounting, while the substitute LCAX450-58-6 specifies free hanging (in-line) without angle designation. Both configurations support the same stud interface and are functionally compatible with standard mounting applications.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. There are no differences in regulatory certifications or environmental compliance classifications.

Q: Why is the main part listed as obsolete?

A: The LCAX450-58H-6 is classified as obsolete, indicating it is no longer in active production. The LCAX450-58-6 serves as the active equivalent and is the recommended selection for new designs and procurement.

Q: What packaging differences exist between these parts?

A: The main part LCAX450-58H-6 packaging is not specified in the available data. The substitute part LCAX450-58-6 is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specifications.

Q: Are the barrel and ring dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Barrel ID (0.920"), Barrel OD (1.190"), and Ring ID (0.660") are identical across both parts, ensuring proper fit with 450 MCM wire and mating stud interfaces.

Q: Can this terminal be used with wire gauges other than 450 MCM?

A: No. Both the main part and substitute are specified exclusively for 450 MCM (kcmil) wire gauge. Use of alternative wire gauges will result in improper termination and connection failure.
