LCDX300-12F-6 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LCDX300-12F-6 is a rectangular tongue terminal connector manufactured by Panduit Corp, designed for 300MCM (kcmil) wire gauge applications with a 1/2 stud configuration. This component is classified as obsolete, which necessitates identification of active equivalent parts to maintain supply chain continuity and ensure ongoing availability for replacement and new installations.

The terminal features a two stud hole design with electro-tin contact finish on copper material, suitable for crimp barrel termination in non-insulated applications. The obsolete status of this part requires engineers and procurement specialists to identify functionally equivalent alternatives that maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the LCDX300-12F-6 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

• Wire gauge: 300MCM (kcmil)
• Contact material: Copper
• Contact finish: Electro-Tin
• Termination method: Crimp, Barrel

Mechanical Compatibility Parameters:

• Stud/tab size: 1/2 Stud
• Terminal type: Rectangular Tongue
• Terminal style: Two Stud Holes
• Tab thickness: 0.180" (4.57mm)
• Barrel ID: 0.760" (19.30mm)
• Barrel OD: 0.950" (24.13mm)
• Ring ID: 0.530" (13.46mm)

Regulatory Compliance Parameters:

• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected

The substitute part LCDX300-12-6 maintains full equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The primary distinction between the main part and its substitute is the product status (obsolete versus active) and packaging configuration (free hanging with right angle mounting versus free hanging in-line mounting).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LCDX300-12-6 serves as the direct equivalent for the obsolete LCDX300-12F-6. Selection of the substitute part is based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Status Consideration: The LCDX300-12F-6 is classified as obsolete, while the LCDX300-12-6 maintains active product status. Active status ensures continued manufacturing support, availability, and compliance with current regulatory requirements.

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, confirming alignment with current environmental and safety regulations applicable to terminal connector components.

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence: The substitute part maintains identical specifications across all critical electrical parameters (wire gauge, contact material, contact finish, termination method) and mechanical parameters (stud size, terminal type, dimensional tolerances, barrel specifications). This equivalence ensures direct functional replacement without circuit redesign or assembly modification.

Packaging and Availability: The substitute part is available in bulk packaging with 995 pieces in current inventory, providing immediate procurement capability for production and replacement applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can LCDX300-12-6 be used as a direct replacement for LCDX300-12F-6?

A: Yes. The LCDX300-12-6 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the LCDX300-12F-6 across all critical parameters including wire gauge (300MCM), stud size (1/2), terminal type (rectangular tongue), contact material (copper), contact finish (electro-tin), and barrel dimensions. The substitute part maintains identical tab thickness, barrel ID/OD, and ring ID specifications.

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

A: The primary differences are product status and mounting configuration. The LCDX300-12F-6 is obsolete with right angle mounting capability, while the LCDX300-12-6 is active with in-line mounting configuration. Both parts are functionally equivalent for 300MCM wire termination applications.

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

A: No. Both parts maintain identical RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, confirming equivalence under current environmental and regulatory standards.

Q: What packaging options are available for the substitute part?

A: The LCDX300-12-6 is supplied in bulk packaging with current inventory of 995 pieces available.

Q: Does the mounting type difference affect electrical performance?

A: No. The mounting type difference (right angle versus in-line) affects physical installation orientation but does not impact electrical performance, contact resistance, or termination integrity for 300MCM wire applications.

Q: Are the barrel dimensions identical between both parts?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical barrel specifications: 0.760" (19.30mm) inner diameter, 0.950" (24.13mm) outer diameter, and 0.530" (13.46mm) ring inner diameter.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing assemblies?

A: Interchangeability depends on the specific mounting requirements of the assembly. If the assembly accommodates in-line mounting configuration, the LCDX300-12-6 provides direct functional replacement. If right angle mounting is required, the mounting configuration difference must be evaluated against assembly constraints.
