MTB-02 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MTB-02 is a 2-position rectangular connector housing manufactured by Adam Tech. This receptacle connector features a 0.156" (3.96mm) pitch and is designed for free-hanging, in-line applications with crimp termination and locking ramp fastening. The part is Active in product status and RoHS3 compliant. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are required for design flexibility, inventory management, or supply chain continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the MTB-02 are identified based on strict equivalence of core electrical and mechanical parameters: connector type (receptacle), contact type (female socket), number of positions (2), pitch (0.156"/3.96mm), number of rows (1), mounting type (free hanging in-line), contact termination (crimp), and fastening type (locking ramp). All substitute parts maintain RoHS3 compliance and MSL rating of 1. Substitutes are grouped as parametric equivalents when these defining characteristics are identical, regardless of manufacturer, series designation, or color variation.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both substitute parts maintain full parametric equivalence with the MTB-02 across all core connector specifications. All three parts are Active in product status and RoHS3 compliant with MSL rating of 1.

The Molex 0009501021 (SPOX 5195 series) operates across an extended temperature range of -40°C to 105°C compared to the MTB-02's -25°C to 85°C range, providing broader thermal capability for applications requiring lower or higher temperature operation.

The Molex 0430610002 (SPOX 43061 series) features a glass-filled polyester insulation material and operates within a narrower temperature range of 0°C to 75°C. This part is suitable for applications within its specified thermal limits where the alternative insulation material is acceptable.

Selection between these parts depends on application-specific temperature requirements and material compatibility constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What defines a substitute part for the MTB-02? A: A substitute part must match the MTB-02 in connector type (receptacle), contact type (female socket), number of positions (2), pitch (0.156"/3.96mm), number of rows (1), mounting type (free hanging in-line), contact termination (crimp), and fastening type (locking ramp). All substitutes must maintain RoHS3 compliance and MSL rating of 1.

Q: Are the Molex substitutes mechanically compatible with the MTB-02? A: Yes. Both Molex parts share identical mechanical specifications including pitch, number of positions, mounting type, and fastening mechanism, ensuring mechanical compatibility in applications designed for the MTB-02.

Q: What is the difference between the two Molex substitute options? A: The 0009501021 operates across -40°C to 105°C with polyamide insulation, while the 0430610002 operates across 0°C to 75°C with glass-filled polyester insulation. Selection depends on application temperature requirements and material compatibility.

Q: Do all parts include contacts? A: No. The MTB-02, 0009501021, and 0430610002 are connector housings only. Contacts must be sourced separately and are not included with these parts.

Q: Are color differences significant for substitution? A: Color variation (white for MTB-02 versus natural for both Molex parts) does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility. Color selection depends on application aesthetics or identification requirements only.
