LCCF4-14AF-L Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LCCF4-14AF-L is a rectangular tongue terminal connector manufactured by Panduit Corp, designed for 4 AWG wire gauge applications with a 1/4 inch stud connection. This component is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinuation from active production. The terminal features crimp barrel termination, electro-tin contact finish, and non-insulated construction suitable for free-hanging, in-line, and right-angle mounting configurations. Due to its obsolete status, identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity and ensure component availability for ongoing applications and repairs.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the LCCF4-14AF-L is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Wire Gauge: 4 AWG
• Stud/Tab Size: 1/4 Stud
• Terminal Type: Rectangular Tongue
• Terminal Style: Two Stud Holes
• Termination Method: Crimp, Barrel
• Contact Material: Copper
• Contact Finish: Electro-Tin
• Insulation: Non-Insulated
• Ring ID: 0.270" (6.86mm)
• Tab Thickness: 0.090" (2.29mm)

The LCCX4-14AF-L qualifies as a direct substitute because it maintains identical specifications across all mandatory parameters. The primary distinction between the main part and its substitute is the product status transition from obsolete to active production, coupled with a reduction in barrel outer diameter (OD) from 0.460" to 0.380", which does not affect functional compatibility within the specified application envelope.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LCCX4-14AF-L is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete LCCF4-14AF-L. Selection of the substitute part is supported by the following engineering criteria:

Product Status: The LCCX4-14AF-L maintains active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. The LCCF4-14AF-L, classified as obsolete, presents procurement risk and limited future availability.

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain identical ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and EAR99 ECCN classification, confirming equivalent environmental and export regulatory standing.

Functional Equivalence: The substitute part preserves all critical electrical and mechanical parameters required for 4 AWG wire gauge applications with 1/4 inch stud termination. The reduction in barrel outer diameter does not compromise functional performance within the specified application scope.

Series Continuity: Both components belong to the Pan-Lug™ series, maintaining design consistency and interchangeability within Panduit's terminal connector ecosystem.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the LCCX4-14AF-L be used as a direct replacement for the LCCF4-14AF-L?

A: Yes. The LCCX4-14AF-L is the manufacturer-recommended substitute. Both parts maintain identical wire gauge (4 AWG), stud size (1/4 inch), terminal type (rectangular tongue), termination method (crimp barrel), and contact specifications. The parts are functionally equivalent for all specified applications.

Q: What is the difference between the LCCF4-14AF-L and LCCX4-14AF-L?

A: The primary differences are product status and barrel outer diameter. The LCCF4-14AF-L is obsolete with a barrel OD of 0.460 inches, while the LCCX4-14AF-L is active production with a barrel OD of 0.380 inches. All other electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical.

Q: Why has the barrel outer diameter changed?

A: The barrel outer diameter reduction from 0.460 inches to 0.380 inches represents a design optimization in the active production variant. This change does not affect the barrel inner diameter (0.280 inches), ring ID (0.270 inches), or wire gauge capacity (4 AWG), maintaining full functional compatibility.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The LCCF4-14AF-L packaging information is not specified in the available data. The LCCX4-14AF-L is supplied in bulk packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement specifications.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both the LCCF4-14AF-L and LCCX4-14AF-L are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under ECCN EAR99. They share identical HTSUS classification (8536.90.4000), confirming equivalent regulatory standing.

Q: What wire gauge does this terminal accommodate?

A: Both parts are rated for 4 AWG wire gauge with crimp barrel termination. The barrel inner diameter of 0.280 inches and ring ID of 0.270 inches are sized specifically for this wire gauge specification.

Q: Is the LCCX4-14AF-L suitable for both in-line and right-angle mounting?

A: Yes. The LCCX4-14AF-L supports free-hanging, in-line, and right-angle mounting configurations, identical to the LCCF4-14AF-L. The two stud hole terminal style accommodates both mounting orientations.
