Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the LCCX4-38DF-L is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Wire Gauge: 4 AWG (determines conductor cross-section compatibility)
• Stud/Tab Size: 3/8 Stud (determines mounting interface compatibility)
• Terminal Type: Rectangular Tongue (determines mechanical form factor)
• Terminal Style: Two Stud Holes (determines fastening configuration)
• Termination Method: Crimp, Barrel (determines assembly process compatibility)
• Barrel Dimensions: ID 0.280" (7.11mm), OD 0.380" (9.65mm) (determines wire insertion and crimp specifications)
• Ring ID: 0.410" (10.41mm) (determines stud clearance)
• Contact Material and Finish: Copper with Electro-Tin (determines electrical and corrosion properties)
• Insulation: Non-Insulated (determines application context)
• Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected (determines regulatory acceptability)

The LCCX4-38D-L meets all these criteria and serves as a direct substitute for the obsolete LCCX4-38DF-L.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LCCX4-38D-L is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete LCCX4-38DF-L. Both components are manufactured by Panduit Corp within the Pan-Lug™ series and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters.

The LCCX4-38D-L carries Active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain reliability. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying current regulatory requirements.

The primary distinction between the two parts is product status: the LCCX4-38DF-L is Obsolete, while the LCCX4-38D-L is Active. The mounting type specification differs slightly (the main part lists "Free Hanging (In-Line), Right Angle" while the substitute lists "Free Hanging (In-Line)"), though all other mechanical and electrical parameters remain identical. The substitute is available in Bulk packaging.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the LCCX4-38D-L be used as a direct replacement for the LCCX4-38DF-L?

A: Yes. The LCCX4-38D-L is a direct substitute. Both components share identical wire gauge (4 AWG), stud size (3/8), terminal type (Rectangular Tongue), barrel dimensions, contact material and finish, and compliance certifications. The substitute is currently in Active status, whereas the original part is Obsolete.

Q: What are the critical parameters that define substitution compatibility?

A: Substitution compatibility is determined by: wire gauge (4 AWG), stud/tab size (3/8 Stud), terminal type (Rectangular Tongue), terminal style (Two Stud Holes), termination method (Crimp, Barrel), barrel ID (0.280"), barrel OD (0.380"), ring ID (0.410"), contact material (Copper), contact finish (Electro-Tin), and insulation type (Non-Insulated).

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the main part and the substitute?

A: No. Both the LCCX4-38DF-L and LCCX4-38D-L are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected. Regulatory compliance is equivalent across both components.

Q: What is the difference in packaging between these parts?

A: The main part (LCCX4-38DF-L) packaging is not specified in available documentation. The substitute (LCCX4-38D-L) is supplied in Bulk packaging. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Why is the LCCX4-38DF-L classified as Obsolete?

A: The LCCX4-38DF-L carries Obsolete status, indicating it is no longer in active production. The LCCX4-38D-L, with identical specifications, is the current Active equivalent and should be used for new designs and ongoing applications.

Q: Are the mounting type specifications identical?

A: The main part specifies "Free Hanging (In-Line), Right Angle" mounting, while the substitute specifies "Free Hanging (In-Line)" mounting. All other mechanical and electrical parameters are identical. Both configurations support the same terminal function and stud interface.
