Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the M2112LEW13 are identified based on the following criteria:

• Manufacturer alignment: Parts sourced from NKK Switches maintain design consistency and quality standards
• Functional category: Toggle switch classification ensures equivalent switching operation
• Regulatory compliance: Matching ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.50.9065) codes confirm equivalent export and tariff classification
• Product status: Active status parts provide ongoing supply availability

The MNL12LEW13 meets all substitution criteria as an active, equivalent toggle switch from the same manufacturer with identical regulatory classifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MNL12LEW13 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute for the obsolete M2112LEW13. Selection of this substitute part is supported by:

• Identical regulatory classification (ECCN EAR99, HTSUS 8536.50.9065)
• Active product status ensuring long-term supply availability
• Same manufacturer origin (NKK Switches) guaranteeing design compatibility
• Equivalent functional classification as a toggle switch

For applications currently using the M2112LEW13, transition to the MNL12LEW13 is the appropriate path forward given the obsolete status of the original part.
