Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the LCMA95-16F-L is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Stud/Tab Size: M16 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 method and packaging configuration. The LCMA95-16F-L includes flag termination in addition to crimp termination, while the substitute part LCMA95-16F-L is available with crimp termination only. Both parts maintain identical stud size, wire gauge capacity, and electrical characteristics necessary for direct functional substitution in M16 stud applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The LCMA95-16-L serves as the active equivalent for the obsolete LCMA95-16F-L. Both components maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications for M16 stud connectivity with 95mm² wire gauge capacity. The substitute part is currently in active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain reliability.

Both parts satisfy ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting regulatory requirements for industrial and automotive applications. The primary operational difference is the termination method: the original part includes flag termination capability in addition to crimp termination, while the substitute provides crimp termination only. Applications requiring flag termination exclusively should evaluate this distinction against functional requirements.

The substitute part is available in bulk packaging, which may affect procurement quantities and logistics considerations compared to the original part specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can LCMA95-16-L directly replace LCMA95-16F-L in all applications?

A: The LCMA95-16-L provides functional equivalence for M16 stud connectivity and 95mm² wire gauge applications. The primary difference is termination method: the original part includes flag termination, while the substitute provides crimp termination only. Applications requiring flag termination capability must evaluate this distinction.

Q: Are the electrical characteristics identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts use copper contact material with tin finish, non-insulated construction, and identical stud size and wire gauge specifications. Electrical performance is equivalent for M16 stud applications.

Q: What is the significance of the mounting type difference listed in the comparison?

A: The original part specifies both free hanging (in-line) and right angle mounting options, while the substitute specifies free hanging (in-line) only. Applications requiring right angle mounting should confirm compatibility with the substitute part's mounting configuration.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both LCMA95-16F-L and LCMA95-16-L are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements for industrial applications.

Q: What packaging differences exist between these parts?

A: The original part packaging specification is not provided. The substitute part is available in bulk packaging. Procurement requirements should account for this packaging configuration when ordering LCMA95-16-L.

Q: Why is the original part listed as obsolete?

A: The LCMA95-16F-L is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinued production. The LCMA95-16-L remains in active production status and serves as the current equivalent offering from Panduit Corp for this terminal specification.
