Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The LCAXN350-56-6 shares the LCAX base product number with its substitute, establishing a direct product family relationship. Substitution eligibility is determined by the following critical parameters:

Substitution Criteria:

• Identical manufacturer (Panduit Corp)
• Identical base product number (LCAX)
• Identical wire gauge rating (350MCM/kcmil)
• Identical contact material (Copper)
• Identical termination method (Crimp, Barrel)
• Identical terminal configuration (Rectangular)
• Identical insulation type (Non-Insulated)
• Matching regulatory compliance (ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected)

The substitute part LCAXN350-38-6 meets all substitution criteria and is classified as active product status, providing a direct replacement path for the obsolete LCAXN350-56-6.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LCAXN350-38-6 is the designated substitute for the obsolete LCAXN350-56-6. Selection of this substitute is based on the following engineering factors:

Product Status: The LCAXN350-38-6 maintains active product status with Panduit Corp, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. The main part LCAXN350-56-6 is obsolete and no longer actively manufactured.

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain identical ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, confirming equivalence for regulatory requirements in applicable jurisdictions.

Electrical and Mechanical Specifications: The substitute part maintains identical wire gauge rating (350MCM/kcmil), contact material (Copper), termination method (Crimp, Barrel), and terminal configuration (Rectangular), ensuring functional equivalence in electrical termination applications.

Manufacturing Continuity: Both parts share the LCAX base product number, confirming they are part of the same product family and design lineage within Panduit's Pan-Lug™ series.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can LCAXN350-38-6 be used as a direct replacement for LCAXN350-56-6?

A: Yes. The LCAXN350-38-6 is the designated substitute for LCAXN350-56-6. Both parts share identical wire gauge (350MCM/kcmil), contact material (Copper), termination method (Crimp, Barrel), and regulatory compliance status (ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected).

Q: What is the primary difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary difference is product status. LCAXN350-56-6 is obsolete, while LCAXN350-38-6 is active. The substitute part includes specified mechanical dimensions, contact finish (Electro-Tin), and color identification (Blue), which were not detailed in the obsolete part specification.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns when substituting LCAXN350-38-6 for LCAXN350-56-6?

A: No compatibility concerns exist. Both parts are manufactured by Panduit Corp, share the LCAX base product number, and maintain identical electrical and material specifications for 350MCM wire gauge applications.

Q: What packaging is available for the substitute part?

A: The LCAXN350-38-6 is available in bulk packaging, with 1035 pieces currently in stock as new original inventory.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both LCAXN350-56-6 and LCAXN350-38-6 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting identical regulatory standards.

Q: Is the stud size specification relevant to substitution?

A: The LCAXN350-38-6 is specified with a 3/8 stud size. This mechanical dimension should be verified against application requirements to ensure proper fit in the intended mounting configuration.
