LEDM-1-05 LED Spacer Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LEDM-1-05 is a T1 3/4 LED standoff spacer manufactured by Essentra Components. This black PVC component measures 0.197" (5.00mm) in length and is designed for T1 3/4 LED applications. The part is currently in active production status with 1,029 units available in stock. LED spacers are essential components in electronic assemblies, providing mechanical support and precise positioning for LED leads during PCB mounting and soldering operations. Substitute parts may be required due to supply chain constraints, inventory availability, or specific application requirements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the LEDM-1-05 are qualified based on the following critical parameters:

• LED Type: T1 3/4 (mechanical compatibility with standard T1 3/4 LED leads)
• Material: PVC (chemical and thermal compatibility)
• Color: Black (visual and application consistency)
• Length Tolerance: Within acceptable mechanical fit range (0.189" to 0.200")
• RoHS Compliance: All substitutes maintain RoHS compliance status
• MSL Rating: All substitutes maintain MSL 1 rating
• REACH Status: All substitutes maintain REACH Unaffected status

Two qualified substitutes meet these criteria: LEDS2-3-26 (Essentra Components/Richco) and ELM 3-200 (Bivar Inc.).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain active production status and full regulatory compliance. The LEDM-1-05 and ELM 3-200 offer the closest length specifications at 0.197" and 0.200" respectively, with a variance of 0.003". The LEDS2-3-26 presents a length of 0.189", representing a 0.008" reduction from the primary part. All substitutes maintain identical RoHS and REACH compliance profiles. The ELM 3-200 demonstrates the highest inventory availability at 35,698 units, followed by LEDS2-3-26 at 2,197 units. Selection should be based on application-specific length requirements and supply chain availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What determines if a part can substitute for the LEDM-1-05?

A: Substitutes must maintain T1 3/4 LED type compatibility, black PVC material composition, length within the 0.189" to 0.200" range, and equivalent RoHS and REACH compliance status.

Q: How significant is the length difference between LEDM-1-05 and LEDS2-3-26?

A: The LEDS2-3-26 measures 0.189" compared to the LEDM-1-05 at 0.197", a difference of 0.008". This variance falls within typical mechanical tolerance ranges for LED spacer applications but should be verified against specific PCB design requirements.

Q: Are all substitutes RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The LEDM-1-05 and LEDS2-3-26 are RoHS Compliant, while the ELM 3-200 is ROHS3 Compliant. Both certifications meet current regulatory requirements.

Q: What is the packaging format for these parts?

A: The LEDM-1-05 is supplied in standard packaging. The LEDS2-3-26 and ELM 3-200 are supplied in bulk packaging format.

Q: Which substitute offers the best inventory availability?

A: The ELM 3-200 from Bivar Inc. offers the highest inventory availability at 35,698 units in stock.
