Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the LCMA50-10F-L is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Terminal Type: Flat Sided, Tubular (Battery Lugs)
• Stud/Tab Size: M10 Stud
• Wire Gauge: 50mm²
• Contact Material: Copper
• Contact Finish: Tin
• Insulation: Non-Insulated
• Series: Pan-Lug™
• Base Product Number: LCMA

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 Compliance
• REACH Unaffected Status

The LCMA50-10-L qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical performance across all mandatory parameters. The primary distinction between the main part and the substitute is the termination method and product status, with the substitute offering active availability while maintaining full electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LCMA50-10-L is the direct equivalent substitute for the LCMA50-10F-L. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications for M10 stud ring terminal applications with 50mm² wire gauge capacity. The substitute part carries active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain reliability compared to the obsolete main part.

Both parts satisfy ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected requirements, making them suitable for applications subject to environmental and regulatory standards. The substitute part is recommended for new designs and ongoing production requirements where component availability is critical.

The termination method difference (Crimp, Flag versus Crimp) does not affect the core electrical or mechanical compatibility of the connector. The substitute part's complete dimensional specification (thickness and overall length) provides additional design reference data compared to the main part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can LCMA50-10-L be used as a direct replacement for LCMA50-10F-L?

A: Yes. Both parts are M10 stud ring terminals with 50mm² wire gauge capacity, identical contact material (copper with tin finish), and matching outer width dimensions. They are electrically and mechanically equivalent for flat-sided, tubular battery lug applications.

Q: What is the difference between the termination methods listed for these parts?

A: The main part (LCMA50-10F-L) specifies Crimp, Flag termination, while the substitute (LCMA50-10-L) specifies Crimp termination. Both termination methods are compatible with standard crimping equipment for 50mm² conductors on M10 studs.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current environmental regulations?

A: Yes. Both LCMA50-10F-L and LCMA50-10-L are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component applications.

Q: Why is the main part listed as obsolete?

A: The LCMA50-10F-L carries obsolete product status. The LCMA50-10-L substitute maintains active status, providing assured availability for current and future applications requiring M10 stud ring terminals with 50mm² wire gauge capacity.

Q: Are the dimensional specifications identical between both parts?

A: The outer width dimension (0.709" / 18.00mm) is identical. The substitute part provides complete dimensional data including thickness (0.098" / 2.49mm) and overall length (1.831" / 46.50mm), while the main part does not specify these dimensions in the available documentation.

Q: What packaging format is available for these terminals?

A: Both parts are supplied in bulk packaging format, suitable for high-volume production and assembly operations.
