LCDX6-10P-L Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LCDX6-10P-L is a rectangular tongue terminal connector manufactured by Panduit Corp, designed for 6 AWG wire termination on a #10 stud. This component is part of the Pan-Lug™ series and features a non-insulated, electro-tin plated copper construction suitable for free-hanging, in-line mounting applications. The part is currently classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent alternatives to maintain supply chain continuity and ensure design compatibility in new procurement activities.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The LCDX6-10P-L has been identified with one active equivalent substitute: LCDX6-10A-L. This substitution is valid based on the following critical parameters that remain constant across both parts:

• Wire gauge specification (6 AWG)
• Stud/tab size (#10 stud)
• Terminal type (rectangular tongue with two stud holes)
• Termination method (crimp, barrel)
• Contact material and finish (copper, electro-tin)
• Mounting configuration (free-hanging, in-line)
• Electrical and mechanical dimensions (barrel ID, barrel OD, ring ID, tab thickness)
• Compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected, EAR99)

The substitute part operates within the same electrical and mechanical envelope, ensuring functional interchangeability in applications requiring 6 AWG wire termination on #10 studs. Both parts belong to the Pan-Lug™ series and share identical contact material specifications and dimensional tolerances for critical connection interfaces.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LCDX6-10A-L is the direct active equivalent for the obsolete LCDX6-10P-L. Selection of the substitute part is based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Status: The LCDX6-10A-L maintains active product status with Panduit Corp, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. The main part LCDX6-10P-L is classified as obsolete and should not be specified for new designs or procurement.

Compliance and Certifications: Both parts maintain identical compliance certifications including ROHS3 compliance, REACH Unaffected status, and EAR99 export classification. No regulatory or environmental restrictions differentiate the two parts.

Electrical and Mechanical Compatibility: The substitute part operates within the same electrical and mechanical specifications. All critical dimensions for wire termination, stud connection, and mounting are identical. The minor difference in overall length (1.820" versus 1.880") does not affect functional performance in free-hanging, in-line applications.

Packaging Consideration: The substitute part is supplied in bulk packaging, which may differ from the original part's packaging specification. Procurement processes should account for bulk packaging requirements and inventory management practices.

For applications currently utilizing LCDX6-10P-L, direct substitution with LCDX6-10A-L is appropriate without design modification or re-qualification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

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

A: Yes. Both parts share identical wire gauge (6 AWG), stud size (#10), terminal type (rectangular tongue), termination method (crimp, barrel), contact material (copper), and contact finish (electro-tin). All critical electrical and mechanical parameters are equivalent, enabling direct substitution without design changes.

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

A: The LCDX6-10P-L has an overall length of 1.880" (47.75mm), while the LCDX6-10A-L measures 1.820" (46.23mm). This 0.060" (1.52mm) difference does not affect functional performance in free-hanging, in-line mounting applications. Both parts maintain identical stud hole positioning and contact interface dimensions.

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical ROHS3 compliance, REACH Unaffected status, EAR99 export classification, and HTSUS code (8536.90.4000). No regulatory or environmental restrictions differentiate the two parts.

Q: Why is the main part classified as obsolete?

A: The LCDX6-10P-L is obsolete and no longer actively manufactured or supported by Panduit Corp. The LCDX6-10A-L is the active equivalent and should be specified for all new procurement and design applications.

Q: Does packaging differ between these parts?

A: Yes. The LCDX6-10A-L is supplied in bulk packaging, while the main part's packaging specification is not detailed in available documentation. Procurement teams should confirm bulk packaging compatibility with their inventory and assembly processes.

Q: Are the barrel dimensions identical between both parts?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical barrel specifications: 0.220" (5.59mm) inner diameter and 0.310" (7.87mm) outer diameter. The ring inner diameter is also identical at 0.200" (5.08mm). These dimensions ensure equivalent wire termination performance.

Q: Can these parts be intermixed in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The electrical and mechanical equivalence of these parts permits intermixing in existing assemblies without performance degradation or compatibility issues.
