LCMA95-10F-L Ring Terminal Connector M10 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LCMA95-10F-L is a ring terminal connector manufactured by Panduit Corp, designed for M10 stud applications with 95mm² wire gauge capacity. This component is classified as a flat-sided, tubular battery lug terminal with crimp and flag termination. The part is currently listed as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent alternatives to maintain supply chain continuity for applications requiring this terminal specification.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete LCMA95-10F-L is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Stud/Tab Size: M10 Stud
• Wire Gauge: 95mm²
• Terminal Type: Flat Sided, Tubular (Battery Lugs)
• Contact Material: Copper
• Contact Finish: Tin
• Insulation: Non-Insulated
• Series: Pan-Lug™
• Manufacturer: Panduit Corp

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 Compliant
• REACH Unaffected

The primary distinction between the main part and its substitute relates to termination configuration and product status. The LCMA95-10F-L includes flag termination and is obsolete, while the substitute LCMA95-10-L features standard crimp termination and maintains active product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LCMA95-10-L serves as the direct substitute for the obsolete LCMA95-10F-L based on the following engineering criteria:

Product Status Alignment: The LCMA95-10-L maintains active product status with Panduit Corp, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. The LCMA95-10F-L is classified as obsolete, making the active substitute the appropriate selection for new designs and ongoing production requirements.

Compliance Certification: Both parts maintain identical compliance certifications: ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected. This ensures regulatory equivalence for applications subject to environmental and hazardous substance restrictions.

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence: The substitute part matches all critical electrical and mechanical parameters of the main part, including M10 stud compatibility, 95mm² wire gauge capacity, copper contact material with tin finish, and flat-sided tubular battery lug terminal configuration.

Termination Difference: The primary technical distinction is the removal of flag termination in the substitute part. The LCMA95-10-L provides standard crimp termination, which is the baseline configuration for this terminal family. Applications requiring flag termination must evaluate whether this feature is functionally necessary or if standard crimp termination satisfies the circuit requirements.

Mounting Configuration: The LCMA95-10F-L specifies both free hanging (in-line) and right angle mounting options, while the LCMA95-10-L specifies free hanging (in-line) mounting. Applications requiring right angle orientation must confirm compatibility with the substitute part's mounting configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the LCMA95-10-L directly replace the LCMA95-10F-L in existing applications?

A: The LCMA95-10-L is electrically and mechanically equivalent for M10 stud connections with 95mm² wire gauge. The primary difference is the absence of flag termination in the substitute part. Compatibility depends on whether flag termination is a functional requirement in the application. If standard crimp termination satisfies the circuit design, direct substitution is valid.

Q: What is the significance of the flag termination feature in the LCMA95-10F-L?

A: Flag termination provides an additional mechanical feature for specific assembly or connection methods. The LCMA95-10-L omits this feature, offering standard crimp termination. Applications must determine whether this feature is essential to their design or if it can be eliminated without affecting performance.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current environmental regulations?

A: Yes. Both the LCMA95-10F-L and LCMA95-10-L are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current environmental and hazardous substance restrictions applicable to electronic components.

Q: What is the difference in mounting type between these parts?

A: The LCMA95-10F-L supports both free hanging (in-line) and right angle mounting configurations. The LCMA95-10-L supports free hanging (in-line) mounting only. Applications requiring right angle orientation must confirm that the substitute part's mounting configuration is compatible with the circuit layout.

Q: Why is the LCMA95-10F-L listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolescence indicates that Panduit Corp has discontinued active production and support for this part number. The LCMA95-10-L represents the active equivalent within the Pan-Lug™ series, providing the same core terminal functionality with standard termination configuration.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between both parts?

A: The outer width dimension (0.965" / 24.51mm) is identical. The LCMA95-10-L provides specified thickness (0.120" / 3.05mm) and overall length (2.382" / 60.50mm) values, while the LCMA95-10F-L does not specify these dimensions in the available data. Both parts maintain the same M10 stud interface and 95mm² wire gauge capacity.

Q: What is the current inventory status for these parts?

A: The LCMA95-10F-L has 1223 pieces in stock as new original inventory. The LCMA95-10-L has 1121 pieces in stock as new original inventory. Both parts are available through Panduit Corp distribution channels.
