LCC3/0-12D-X Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LCC3/0-12D-X is a rectangular tongue terminal connector manufactured by Panduit Corp, designed for 3/0 AWG wire gauge applications with a 1/2 stud connection. This component is classified as a Pan-Lug™ series terminal and features crimp barrel termination with electro-tin contact finish on copper material. The part is currently listed as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent alternatives to maintain supply chain continuity for applications requiring this terminal specification.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the LCC3/0-12D-X is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: wire gauge (3/0 AWG), stud size (1/2), terminal type (rectangular tongue), termination method (crimp barrel), contact material (copper), contact finish (electro-tin), and barrel dimensions (ID 0.510", OD 0.640"). The substitute part LCC3/0-12-X maintains identical specifications across all these parameters, confirming functional and mechanical compatibility. The primary distinction between the main part and its substitute is product status (obsolete versus active) and overall length dimension, which does not affect electrical or mechanical interface requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LCC3/0-12-X serves as the active equivalent for the obsolete LCC3/0-12D-X. Both components maintain identical electrical and mechanical interface specifications, including wire gauge, stud size, barrel dimensions, and contact properties. The substitute part is currently in active production status with confirmed inventory availability (694 pieces), whereas the main part is obsolete with limited remaining stock (1115 pieces). Both parts satisfy ROHS3 compliance requirements and carry identical regulatory classifications (REACH Unaffected, ECCN EAR99, HTSUS 8536.90.4000). The primary dimensional difference is overall length (4.120" versus 5.030"), which does not affect the electrical connection interface or mechanical mounting compatibility at the stud attachment point. Selection of the LCC3/0-12-X is appropriate for new designs and replacement applications where supply chain continuity is required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the LCC3/0-12D-X and LCC3/0-12-X electrically equivalent?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical wire gauge (3/0 AWG), barrel dimensions (ID 0.510", OD 0.640"), contact material (copper), and contact finish (electro-tin). Electrical performance at the connection interface is equivalent.

Q: What is the significance of the length difference between these parts?

A: The LCC3/0-12D-X measures 4.120" overall length, while the LCC3/0-12-X measures 5.030" overall length. This difference does not affect the stud attachment interface or electrical connection. Length variation may impact physical routing or clearance in confined spaces but does not compromise functional compatibility.

Q: Can the LCC3/0-12-X be used as a direct replacement in existing applications?

A: The LCC3/0-12-X is mechanically and electrically compatible with the LCC3/0-12D-X at the connection interface. Physical installation space must accommodate the increased overall length (5.030" versus 4.120").

Q: Why is the LCC3/0-12D-X listed as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence is determined by manufacturer discontinuation. The active equivalent LCC3/0-12-X provides identical functional specifications and is the recommended selection for ongoing applications.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the LCC3/0-12D-X and LCC3/0-12-X are ROHS3 compliant and carry identical regulatory status (REACH Unaffected, ECCN EAR99).

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: The LCC3/0-12D-X is supplied in standard packaging format. The LCC3/0-12-X is available in bulk packaging. Packaging selection should align with procurement and inventory management requirements.

Q: Are there any differences in termination method between these parts?

A: No. Both parts utilize identical crimp barrel termination methodology, ensuring compatibility with standard crimping equipment and procedures.
