Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The LCMA6-6F-C has been identified with one active equivalent: LCMA6-6-C. This substitution is valid based on the following matching parameters:

Critical Compatibility Parameters:

• Manufacturer: Panduit Corp (same manufacturer ensures design consistency)
• Stud/Tab Size: M6 (identical stud configuration)
• Wire Gauge Range: 4.0 ~ 6.0mm² (identical wire capacity)
• Termination Method: Crimp (identical connection type)
• Contact Material: Copper (identical base material)
• Contact Finish: Tin (identical surface treatment)
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line) (identical installation method)
• Insulation: Non-Insulated (identical insulation specification)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (equivalent regulatory compliance)
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected (equivalent regulatory compliance)

The substitute part LCMA6-6-C is classified as Active product status, providing ongoing availability and supply chain support. Both parts belong to the Pan-Lug™ series and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications for terminal connector applications.

• Compliance with current regulatory standards (ROHS3, REACH)
• Established supply chain with higher inventory levels (1690 Pcs vs. 967 Pcs)

Regulatory Compliance:

Both parts meet ROHS3 compliance requirements and are REACH unaffected, confirming suitability for applications subject to environmental and hazardous substance regulations.

Inventory Considerations:

The LCMA6-6-C demonstrates higher current inventory availability, supporting both immediate procurement needs and long-term supply chain planning.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can LCMA6-6-C directly replace LCMA6-6F-C in existing applications?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications including M6 stud size, 4.0 ~ 6.0mm² wire gauge capacity, crimp termination, copper construction with tin finish, and non-insulated configuration. The parts are functionally equivalent for all terminal connector applications.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: LCMA6-6F-C is classified as obsolete and no longer in active production. LCMA6-6-C is the active equivalent part from Panduit Corp that maintains all critical specifications while ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturer support.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between these parts?

A: LCMA6-6-C is supplied in Bulk packaging. The original part number LCMA6-6F-C does not specify packaging details. Bulk packaging is standard for terminal connector components and does not affect functional performance.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both LCMA6-6F-C and LCMA6-6-C are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, confirming equivalent regulatory status for environmental and hazardous substance requirements.

Q: What wire gauges are supported by the substitute part?

A: The LCMA6-6-C supports wire gauges from 4.0 to 6.0mm², identical to the original LCMA6-6F-C specification. This range accommodates standard industrial and automotive wiring applications within this capacity band.

Q: Is the M6 stud size consistent between both parts?

A: Yes. Both parts feature M6 stud configuration, ensuring compatibility with existing mounting hardware and connection points designed for M6 terminal studs.

Q: What is the contact material composition?

A: Both parts use copper as the base contact material with tin finish. This combination provides reliable electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance for terminal connector applications.
