Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete LCB1/0-38WH-X is based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the Pan-Lug™ series. The substitute part LCB1/0-38-X maintains identical specifications across all critical functional parameters: wire gauge (1/0 AWG), stud size (3/8"), terminal type (rectangular tongue), termination method (crimp barrel), contact material (copper), contact finish (electro-tin), and all dimensional specifications including tab thickness, barrel dimensions, and ring ID.

The primary distinction between the main part and substitute is product status and packaging configuration. The LCB1/0-38-X is classified as active with bulk packaging, whereas the LCB1/0-38WH-X is obsolete. Both parts conform to the same electrical and mechanical interface requirements, ensuring functional interchangeability in applications requiring 1/0 AWG rectangular tongue terminals with 3/8" stud connections.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LCB1/0-38-X is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete LCB1/0-38WH-X. Selection of the substitute part is based on complete electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence combined with active product status and regulatory compliance.

The LCB1/0-38-X provides ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, offering enhanced regulatory alignment for new designs and procurement cycles. Both parts share identical dimensional specifications, contact materials, and termination characteristics, ensuring direct functional substitution in existing applications.

For applications currently utilizing the LCB1/0-38WH-X, transition to the LCB1/0-38-X maintains full compatibility with existing stud connections, wire gauge requirements, and electrical performance specifications. The active status of the substitute part ensures continued availability and supply chain reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the LCB1/0-38-X directly replace the LCB1/0-38WH-X in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent. They share identical wire gauge (1/0 AWG), stud size (3/8"), terminal type (rectangular tongue), contact material (copper), contact finish (electro-tin), and all dimensional specifications including barrel and ring dimensions.

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

A: The LCB1/0-38WH-X is classified as obsolete, while the LCB1/0-38-X is active. The substitute part also includes ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Packaging differs between the two configurations.

Q: Are the mounting and termination methods identical?

A: The termination method is identical for both parts: crimp barrel. The main part specifies free hanging (in-line) mounting with 45° angle, while the substitute specifies free hanging (in-line) mounting without angle specification. Both are non-insulated rectangular tongue terminals suitable for the same stud connection applications.

Q: What wire gauge do these terminals accommodate?

A: Both the LCB1/0-38WH-X and LCB1/0-38-X are rated for 1/0 AWG wire gauge with a barrel inner diameter of 0.390" (9.91mm).

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences between the parts?

A: The LCB1/0-38-X includes ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Both parts share the same ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.90.4000) classifications.

Q: What is the stud connection size for these terminals?

A: Both terminals feature a 3/8" stud connection, accommodating standard 3/8" stud applications in electrical distribution and power connection systems.
