Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the LCDX6-10B-L is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

• Wire gauge (6 AWG)
• Stud size (#10)
• Barrel inner diameter (0.220")
• Barrel outer diameter (0.310")
• Ring inner diameter (0.200")
• Contact material (Copper)
• Contact finish (Electro-Tin)

Mechanical Compatibility Parameters:

• Terminal type (Rectangular Tongue)
• Terminal style (Two Stud Holes)
• Termination method (Crimp, Barrel)
• Insulation type (Non-Insulated)
• Mounting type (Free Hanging, In-Line)

Regulatory Compliance Parameters:

• RoHS3 Compliant status
• REACH Unaffected status

The LCDX6-10A-L meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters required for direct substitution. The primary distinction is product status: LCDX6-10B-L is obsolete while LCDX6-10A-L is active, with minor dimensional variation in overall length.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LCDX6-10A-L is the direct functional equivalent for applications currently specified with LCDX6-10B-L. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including wire gauge, stud size, barrel dimensions, contact material, and contact finish.

The LCDX6-10A-L provides the advantage of active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain reliability. Both parts maintain equivalent regulatory compliance with ROHS3 and REACH standards.

The dimensional difference in overall length (1.940" versus 1.820") represents a 0.120" reduction in the substitute part. This variation must be evaluated within the context of specific application geometry and mounting constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can LCDX6-10A-L be used as a direct replacement for LCDX6-10B-L?

A: Yes. Both components meet identical specifications for wire gauge (6 AWG), stud size (#10), barrel dimensions, contact material, contact finish, and termination method. The parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent.

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

A: The LCDX6-10A-L has an overall length of 1.820" compared to 1.940" for the LCDX6-10B-L. This 0.120" difference must be evaluated against specific application requirements, including available mounting space and connector geometry.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The LCDX6-10B-L is listed with unspecified packaging, while LCDX6-10A-L is supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging selection should align with procurement and inventory management requirements.

Q: Do both parts meet current regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both LCDX6-10B-L and LCDX6-10A-L are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory standards for electronic components.

Q: Why is LCDX6-10B-L listed as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence reflects manufacturer discontinuation decisions. The LCDX6-10A-L remains in active production and provides equivalent functionality for all specified applications.

Q: What termination method is used for these terminals?

A: Both components utilize crimp barrel termination, requiring appropriate crimping tools and dies calibrated for 6 AWG wire and 0.220" barrel inner diameter specifications.
