LTM-280 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LTM-280 is an LED standoff manufactured by Bivar Inc., designed for T1 and T1 3/4 LED applications. This component is a vertical mount standoff with a 0.280" (7.11mm) length, constructed from black crystalline polymer material. The part is currently in active production status with robust inventory availability (1082 pieces in stock). Substitute parts are identified when equivalent functional performance is required due to inventory constraints, supply chain considerations, or design flexibility within specified electrical and mechanical parameters.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the LTM-280 is determined by strict adherence to the following parameters:

Critical Compatibility Parameters:

• LED Type: T1, T1 3/4 compatibility required
• Mounting Style: Vertical orientation
• Color: Black
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant
• Length Tolerance: Mechanical fit within 0.280" ± acceptable tolerance range
• Material: Polymer-based construction (crystalline or nylon formulations)
• Packaging: Bag format

The substitute part 705820070 from Würth Elektronik meets all critical parameters with a length specification of 0.276" (7.00mm), which falls within acceptable mechanical tolerance for T1/T1 3/4 LED standoff applications. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant, support identical LED types, and maintain black color specification for vertical mounting configurations.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

LTM-280 (Bivar Inc.): Select this part as the primary choice for new designs and production runs. The part maintains active production status with established supply chain reliability. ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating provide flexibility for standard manufacturing environments without moisture-sensitive handling requirements.

705820070 (Würth Elektronik): This substitute part is functionally equivalent for T1/T1 3/4 LED standoff applications. The 0.276" length specification represents a 0.004" (0.11mm) reduction from the primary part, which remains within acceptable mechanical tolerance for vertical LED mounting. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and support identical LED types. The nylon material construction of the Würth part provides equivalent performance to the crystalline polymer formulation of the Bivar part. Higher inventory availability (5553 pieces) of the substitute part may support extended production schedules or supply chain redundancy requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 705820070 be used as a direct replacement for the LTM-280?

A: Yes. Both parts support T1 and T1 3/4 LED types, feature black vertical mounting standoffs, and maintain ROHS3 compliance. The 0.004" length difference (0.280" versus 0.276") falls within acceptable mechanical tolerance for LED standoff applications.

Q: What is the material difference between these parts?

A: The LTM-280 uses crystalline polymer construction, while the 705820070 uses nylon material. Both are polymer-based formulations suitable for LED standoff applications and provide equivalent mechanical performance for vertical mounting configurations.

Q: Are there any moisture sensitivity differences?

A: The LTM-280 carries an MSL 1 rating (unlimited moisture sensitivity level), indicating no special moisture handling requirements. The 705820070 lists moisture sensitivity as not applicable, which is typical for nylon-based components. Both parts are suitable for standard manufacturing environments.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: The LTM-280 is the primary specification. The 705820070 serves as an approved substitute when supply constraints or design flexibility requirements necessitate an alternative source.

Q: Are both parts available in the same packaging format?

A: Yes. Both the LTM-280 and 705820070 are supplied in bag packaging, maintaining consistency in receiving, handling, and inventory management processes.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant. The 705820070 additionally carries REACH Unaffected status. Both parts are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 3926.90.9985.
