LCC8-14BF-L Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LCC8-14BF-L is a terminal connector manufactured by Panduit Corp, classified as a rectangular tongue terminal designed for 8 AWG wire gauge applications with a 1/4 inch stud connection. This component is part of the Pan-Lug™ series 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.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the LCC8-14BF-L is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Wire Gauge Compatibility: All substitute parts must accommodate 8 AWG wire gauge to ensure proper barrel crimp engagement and electrical conductivity.

Stud/Tab Size Equivalence: The 1/4 inch stud connection is a fixed mechanical interface requirement. All substitutes must maintain this dimension for mounting compatibility.

Terminal Type and Style: Rectangular tongue terminals with two stud holes define the mechanical form factor. This configuration is non-negotiable for direct substitution.

Electrical Properties: Contact material (copper), contact finish (electro-tin), and barrel dimensions (ID 0.180", OD 0.270") establish the electrical performance baseline and must remain constant.

Termination Method: Crimp barrel termination is the specified connection method and cannot be altered in substitutes.

Regulatory Compliance: ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status are mandatory for equivalent parts.

The substitute parts LCC8-14B-L and LCD8-14BF-L satisfy all these criteria while offering active product status and improved inventory availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

LCC8-14B-L Selection Criteria:

The LCC8-14B-L is an active product with full electrical and mechanical equivalence to the obsolete LCC8-14BF-L. This substitute maintains all critical parameters including wire gauge, stud size, terminal geometry, and contact specifications. The primary distinction is mounting type classification, where LCC8-14B-L is specified as Free Hanging (In-Line) without the right angle designation present in the main part. Both parts share identical ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Inventory availability is 918 pieces, providing supply continuity.

LCD8-14BF-L Selection Criteria:

The LCD8-14BF-L is an active product that maintains complete electrical and mechanical compatibility with the LCC8-14BF-L across all specified parameters. This substitute preserves the right angle mounting type designation and all contact specifications. The base product number differs (LCD8 versus LCC8), indicating a variant within the Pan-Lug™ series. ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status are maintained. Inventory availability is 1031 pieces, the highest among available options.

Compliance Verification:

Both substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment with the original specification. No additional compliance testing is required based on the provided certifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can LCC8-14B-L and LCD8-14BF-L be used interchangeably with LCC8-14BF-L?

A: Both parts satisfy the electrical and mechanical requirements for direct substitution. All three parts share identical wire gauge (8 AWG), stud size (1/4 inch), terminal type (rectangular tongue), contact material and finish, and barrel dimensions. The primary difference is mounting type classification, where LCC8-14B-L omits the right angle designation. Selection depends on specific mounting requirements in the application.

Q: What is the significance of the mounting type difference between the substitutes?

A: LCC8-14BF-L and LCD8-14BF-L are both specified as Free Hanging (In-Line), Right Angle, while LCC8-14B-L is specified as Free Hanging (In-Line) only. This distinction relates to the terminal's physical orientation capability. Applications requiring right angle mounting should select LCD8-14BF-L or the original LCC8-14BF-L. Applications with in-line mounting requirements can utilize LCC8-14B-L.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the substitute parts?

A: The main part LCC8-14BF-L is supplied in unspecified packaging with 878 pieces in stock. LCC8-14B-L is supplied in bulk packaging with 918 pieces available. LCD8-14BF-L is supplied in bulk packaging with 1031 pieces available. Packaging format should be verified against procurement requirements.

Q: Do the substitute parts maintain the same regulatory compliance?

A: Yes. All three parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. No compliance degradation occurs with either substitute selection.

Q: What is the difference between the LCC8 and LCD8 base product numbers?

A: The base product numbers indicate variants within the Pan-Lug™ series. LCC8-14B-L uses the LCC8 base, while LCD8-14BF-L uses the LCD8 base. Both are Panduit Corp products with equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications for 8 AWG rectangular tongue terminals with 1/4 inch studs.

Q: Which substitute offers the best inventory availability?

A: LCD8-14BF-L provides the highest inventory level at 1031 pieces, followed by LCC8-14B-L at 918 pieces. Both represent significant availability improvements over the obsolete LCC8-14BF-L at 878 pieces.
